15-year-old Owen Cooper stuns the world with his Emmy win for Outstanding Supporting Actor in Netflix’s hard-hitting series Adolescence, beating industry heavyweights and becoming the youngest male actor ever to win an Emmy.
Fifteen-year-old British actor Owen Cooper has stunned audiences worldwide with his remarkable performance in the fourth episode of Netflix’s hard-hitting series Adolescence. In a night to remember at the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards (Emmys 2025), Cooper took home the Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie award, beating celebrated actors including Javier Bardem, Rob Delaney, and Peter Sarsgaard. His victory makes him the youngest male actor ever to win an Emmy.
