Emma Stone was left “pouring sweat” and “shaky” after she picked up her best actress BAFTA.

The Oscar-winning actress, 35, was handed the trophy for her role as Bella Baxter in ‘Poor Things’ at Sunday’s (18.02.24) ceremony in London’s Festival Hall, beating Fantasia Barrino for ‘The Color Purple’, Sandra Hüller (‘Anatomy of a Fall’), Carey Mulligan (‘Maestro’), Vivian Oparah (‘Rye Lane’) and Margot Robbie (‘Barbie’.)

She said when asked at the winners’ press conference how she was feeling about her latest award: “Really good and shaky – a combination of jet lag and excitement… I’m sorry, I’m pouring sweat. Can you tell?”

Emma added about the work that goes into producing films: “You put you a lot of your heart and soul into making your film. A lot of people are away from their families and bond with this group of people (on set.)”

She said about her joy at seeing people get joy from the final product: “The excitement of it being received or seen by people is immensely meaningful, and you don’t know if it will resonate in the way you want.”
