Jessie Buckley wins the Oscar for Best Actress for Hamnet<\/em><\/h2><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With hair that shifts between red and blonde, her sharp sense of style, her discreet smile and great humility, Jessie Buckley<\/strong>, 36, exudes a sincere kindness that makes her irresistible. Is it her accent straight from her native Kerry in southwest Ireland? Or is it her eclectic career, spanning a British talent show \u2014 she finished runner-up on the BBC reality program I\u2019d Do Anything<\/em> in 2008 \u2014 and American blockbusters? The fact of the matter is that she worked her way up to Hollywood thanks to her originality and without any scandal\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a mother who was a vocal coach and former opera singer, she studied piano, saxophone, clarinet and harp at the Royal Irish Academy of Music<\/strong>. As a child, her only dream was to become a singer, since music was an art form that allowed her to feel completely free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the 98th Academy Awards ceremony<\/strong><\/a> held in Los Angeles on March 15th, 2026, the actress won the Oscar for Best Actress<\/strong> for her role in Hamnet<\/em><\/strong><\/a> (2026), directed by Chlo\u00e9 Zhao<\/strong>. She thus becomes the first Irish actress to receive this prestigious award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A discreet, yet major actress<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Irish actress and singer, a true star back home, like the many British fan accounts and hundreds of articles devoted to her in the local press suggest, is now considered one of the major Anglo-Saxon actresses. Her portrayal of Queen Victoria in Dolittle<\/em><\/strong> (2020), starring Robert Downey Jr.<\/strong> and Emma Thompson<\/strong>, stands as one of the most striking examples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before that, Jessie Buckley<\/strong> had repeatedly shown she was comfortable both on stage and on film sets. A graduate of London\u2019s Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in 2013, she went on to perform in numerous musicals and even won an award for her performance in Carousel<\/em><\/strong> in 2008.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2017, she got her first role in cinema in the thriller Beast<\/em><\/strong>. She portrayed an ambivalent young woman with an apparently innocent demeanor, who becomes involved in a dangerous relationship with a mysterious man accused of murder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A standout appearance in the series Chernobyl<\/em><\/h2><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

But it was above all the feel-good movie Wild Rose<\/em><\/strong> (2018), in which she plays a country singer, that established her as a confirmed actress. Having grown up singing with her mother and siblings, she proves herself an exceptional musical performer, singing all the songs in the film and even co-writing some of them. She also took up country music and came to appreciate it, despite the fact that she would only swear by Celtic sounds in the past. She even took on a Scottish accent to embody her character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In stark contrast to her previous vibrant role as a singer, she also appeared in the HBO series Chernobyl<\/em><\/strong> (2019), which received major critical and public acclaim. Its final episodes were watched by more than six million viewers. That show made Jessie Buckley<\/strong>\u2019s face instantly recognizable. Audiences discovered a deeply moving actress portraying Lyudmilla Ignatenko, the partner of one of the firefighters irradiated, while trying to extinguish the blaze at the infamous nuclear plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an unforgettable scene based on real events, Jessie Buckley<\/strong> defies quarantine rules and risks contagion to kiss her fianc\u00e9 as he dies from radiation poisoning. A role that left a lasting mark on her and led her to reflect on the sometimes destructive power of love. She herself went through tough times when, in 2017, her breakup with former co-star James Norton<\/strong> made the headlines of the tabloids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A breathtaking performance in The Lost Daughter<\/em><\/h2><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In 2022, she earned her first Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in Maggie Gyllenhaal<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s Netflix film The Lost Daughter<\/em><\/strong> (2021). A true honour for someone who admitted feeling deeply impressed to be competing alongside prestigious actresses, such as Judi Dench<\/strong> in Belfast<\/em> and Kirsten Dunst<\/strong> in The Power of the Dog<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the only actress from The Lost Daughter<\/em><\/strong> to be nominated at the Oscars<\/strong><\/a>, she was immensely proud, describing it as a \u201cvery special<\/em>\u201d film that allowed her to work with women she deeply admires and supports. Far from the Hollywood grand entertainment show, the film explores the complexities of motherhood and challenges the expectations placed upon it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Describing herself as \u201ctoo wild\u201d for Hollywood in an interview with the French newspaper Le Parisien<\/em>, she captivated audiences worldwide with her performance in Maggie Gyllenhaal<\/strong>\u2019s adaptation of Elena Ferrante\u2019s novel on Netflix. The Lost Daughter<\/em><\/strong>, starring Olivia Colman<\/strong>, is an intimate and deeply moving film about women. Buckley plays the younger version of Colman\u2019s character, grappling with doubts about motherhood and struggling to reconcile motherhood with the workplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Films impervious to the male gaze<\/h2><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The film could easily be described as feminist, as it breaks free from the male gaze that keeps dominating many transatlantic productions. Jessie Buckley<\/strong> is among those actresses who take a stand. Deeply committed to defending women\u2019s rights within the film industry, she openly supports movements like #MeToo<\/strong> and Time\u2019s Up<\/strong>. Yet, she prefers to keep her distance from the circus of major American studios, favouring instead her native Ireland and the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shunning social media, she left the big city to settle in an old Gothic house in Norfolk, in the north of England. Rather than blockbuster productions, she gravitates towards smaller-budget films and original projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One could see the actress starring next to Benedict Cumberbatch<\/strong> in the spy thriller The Courier<\/em><\/strong> (2021), in Alex Garland<\/strong>\u2019s horror film Men<\/em><\/strong> (2022), and in Sarah Polley<\/strong>\u2019s feature Women Talking<\/em> <\/strong>(2023), alongside Rooney Mara<\/strong>, Claire<\/strong> Foy<\/strong> and Frances McDormand<\/strong>. Then, came Wicked Little Letters<\/em><\/strong> in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2025 marked a major turning point for Jessie Buckley<\/strong>. The actress joined director Chlo\u00e9 Zhao<\/strong> in the historical drama Hamnet<\/em><\/strong>, which revisits the origins of the play Hamlet<\/em><\/strong>. She plays Agnes Shakespeare, the wife of playwright William Shakespeare<\/strong> (Paul Mescal<\/strong><\/a>). Her intense, heart-wrenching performance as a grieving mother losing her child earns her a Critics Choice Award<\/strong> and the Golden Globe<\/a> for Best Actress in a Drama<\/strong>. It also led to her winning the Oscar for Best Actress<\/strong>\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A first Oscar for the star of The Bride!<\/em><\/h2><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The story behind this ambitious project? \u201cEngland, 1580. A penniless Latin teacher meets Agnes, a free-spirited young woman. Fascinated by one another, they embark on a passionate affair before marrying and having three children. While Will tries his luck as a playwright in London, Agnes shoulders the domestic responsibilities alone. When tragedy strikes, the once deeply united couple begins to falter. Yet, from their shared ordeal will emerge the inspiration for a universal masterpiece<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that\u2019s not all. On Wednesday, March 4th, Jessie Buckley reunited with Maggie Gyllenhaal<\/strong> in the highly anticipated project The Bride!<\/em><\/strong><\/a>, a reinterpretation of the myth of Frankenstein<\/strong><\/a>. The premise of this horror project, starring Christian Bale<\/strong>? \u201cConsumed by loneliness, Frankenstein travels to 1930s Chicago and asks Dr. Euphronious, a visionary scientist, to create him a companion. Together, they resurrect a murdered woman as the Bride. But what follows exceeds anything they could have imagined: murders, possessions, and an outlaw couple at the heart of a radical, unhinged social movement, as well as a passionate and tumultuous love story<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
