Joaquin Phoenix has won the Academy Award for Best Actor thanks to his acclaimed performance in Todd Phillips’ “Joker.” The revisionist comic book drama stars Phoenix as Arthur Fleck, a social outcast whose shattered dreams of being a hit stand-up comedian lead him down a dark path to becoming the infamous Batman villain. Phoenix’s Oscar makes him the second performer to win an Academy Award for playing the Joker after Heath Ledger, who won the Best Supporting Actor trophy for playing the character in Christopher Nolan’s “The Dark Knight.” “Joker’ received a total of 11 Oscar nominations, including Best Picture and Best Director, making it the most nominated film at the 92nd Academy Awards. With Phoenix’s win, it has claimed two statuettes: “Joker” composer Hildur Guðnadóttir won the Oscar for Best Original Score.
