Owen Cooper: Teen Star to Make Emmy History with 'Adolescence'
Emmy Awards 2025: The Night of Upsets and Unforgettable Moments
The stage was set for a night of glamour, excitement, and heart-pumping moments at the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards 2025. And, boy, did we get it! As the stars walked down the red carpet at the Peacock Theater in LA, all eyes were on the young and talented Owen Cooper, who was nominated for Best Supporting Actor in a Limited Series category for his role as Jamie Miller in the Netflix show "Adolescence".
But before we dive into the juicy details of the night's winners, let's talk about Owen Cooper. The 15-year-old heartthrob has been making waves in Hollywood with his incredible portrayal of a teenager accused of murdering his classmate after being exposed to extreme and misogynistic content online. His performance left critics and audiences alike speechless, and it's no wonder he was nominated for an Emmy.
As Owen walked the red carpet with his co-stars Erin Doherty and Ashley Walters, all eyes were on him. And when asked about his chances of winning, Owen simply smiled and said, "I will never forget this night for the rest of my life. If I break the record, it would be cool. It's all next level." Little did he know that history was about to be made!
A Record-Breaking Night
And make history, Owen Cooper did! As the winners were announced, Owen Cooper took home the award for Best Supporting Actor in a Limited Series category, breaking the record for being the youngest male winner of a primetime Emmy. This achievement is a testament to his incredible talent and dedication to his craft.
But Owen wasn't the only one making headlines that night. The Netflix show "Adolescence" also took home several awards, including Best Limited or Anthology Series. The show's success can be attributed to its thought-provoking storyline and outstanding performances from its cast.
Red Carpet Fashion
The red carpet was ablaze with glamour as the stars showed off their stunning outfits. Erin Doherty stole the spotlight in a stunning black dress that showcased her impeccable style, while Ashley Walters looked dashing in his tailored suit.
And then there was Owen Cooper, who looked like he just stepped out of a fashion magazine in his sleek black ensemble. The young actor's confidence and charm were palpable as he posed for photos with his co-stars.
A Tough Turnaround
But despite the glamour and excitement, Owen faced a tough reality: returning to school on Wednesday after the awards ceremony. When asked about it during an appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!", Owen jokingly said, "They're not staying up until four in the morning. They wouldn't watch it anyway to be fair."
A Week of Awards
For Owen Cooper and his team, this week was a whirlwind of excitement and hard work. The day before the Emmys, Owen won the National Television Award for his role as Jamie Miller, but he couldn't attend the ceremony in person as he was already en route to LA with his family.
And when asked about his award prediction, over 2,600 people had voted on Gold Derby, with nearly 98% predicting Owen's win. It seemed like everyone knew that this young actor was destined for greatness!
