Jake Gyllenhaal’s good luck charm seemed to work for Owen Cooper, who made history at the 2025 Emmy Awards by becoming the youngest male actor to ever win an Emmy. He received the award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for his role as a teenage murderer in the Netflix series *Adolescence*. In keeping with the show’s themes, Cooper’s acceptance speech challenged harmful ideas about masculinity, shame, and the importance of taking risks. He stated, “Tonight shows that anything is possible if you listen, focus, and push yourself outside your comfort zone.” Cooper shared that he was struggling just three years ago, but now he’s achieved this incredible success, encouraging listeners to embrace potential embarrassment and pursue their goals.
Cooper had a special win even before the awards show – he got to meet his favorite actor, Jake Gyllenhaal! Gyllenhaal unexpectedly visited Cooper at his hotel while he was preparing for an Emmys party and gave him a small toy duck. Cooper shared that he’d been nominated for an Academy Award, and a friend had once sent him a similar duck for good luck. The only difference? Cooper actually won an award, making Gyllenhaal’s gift extra meaningful.
