in his first reaction to his success at the Academy Awards last night, where the actor picked up his second Oscar and first since his portrayal of Hannibal Lecter in 1992 picstar spoke in a video posted to his Instagram page from his homeland of Wales, where he presumably woke up to discover the news of his unexpected win in the Best Actor category.
“Here I am in my homeland in Wales. At 83 years of age, I did not expect to get this award, I really didn’t,” Hopkins said in the vid. “I’m very grateful to the Academy – thank you.” “I want to pay tribute to Chadwick Boseman, who was taken from us far too early. Again, thank you all very much. I really did not expect this, I feel very privileged and honored, thank you,” he added.
