Emma Stone collects the award for best leading actress for Jennifer Lawrence’s “Poor Things.”
Yeoh won her own Best Actress Oscar in 2023 for her role in “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” while Jamie Lee Curtis won the Academy Award for Supporting Actress for her performance in the same film.
Stone and Lawrence have been close friends for years.
In his acceptance speech, Stone said: “This is a team that came together to do something greater than the sum of its parts. And that’s the best part of making movies. “It’s all of us together.”
