Lily Gladstone has projects lined up after starring in Killers of the Flower Moon.
The loss devastated many people who believed the event would recognize the hard work of the actress in bringing to life the grim story of the Osage murders. Gladstone, on the other hand, did not feel any sadness; in fact, she’s already moved on with new projects ahead.
During her conversation with Empire Magazine, Oscar-nominated actress Lily Gladstone revealed that everyone in her hometown celebrated the success of her movie as well as her attendance at the Oscars.
For her, losing to Emma Stone for the Best Actress category was something trivial. The impact and significance of the movie that she did with director Martin Scorsese and costar Leonardo DiCaprio was more important than any award.
It’s about the fact that [the film has] been awarded, and it’s historic, and it’s still just a really meaningful moment. So it’s irrelevant whether or not I walked home with that statue in hand.
She claimed that “regardless of how things turned out, I have work coming out, and I have work lined up.” Indeed, Gladstone is not letting the loss stop her from doing more projects.
Lily Gladstone revealed she has become friends with Emma Stone. Their nominations at the Oscars event became the way for them to meet, and despite the competition, both of them value their friendship more than anything. In her interview with Vanity Fair, the 37-year-old actress shared:
My Infinity Stones ring— Emma Stone has the same one. She sent this to me yesterday, and then she sent me a picture of her wearing the same one because we became fast friends in this whole process. And that’s our thing. We call each other Infinity Stones.
The Infinity Stones are definitely a reference to their last names. Interestingly, The Amazing Spider-Man actress had the most hilarious reaction when she lost to Gladstone during the SAG Awards. They were both nominated for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role where the Killers of the Flower Moon star won.
Stone’s enthusiastic reaction was praised by netizens, while Gladstone seemed to be in shock upon the announcement of her name.
