Watch Owen Coopers heartfelt Emmys speech as he becomes youngest best supporting actor

15-year-old Adolescence star Owen Cooper made history on Sunday by becoming the youngest male star to win an outstanding supporting actor Emmy.

Cooper, who was 14 at the time he filmed Stephen Graham and Jack Thorne’s devastating Netflix miniseries about a teenager who murders a classmate, took to the stage and gave a speech about how his experience is proof that achieving anything can be possible.

“Honestly when I started these drama classes a couple of years back, I didn’t expect to even be in the United States, never mind here,” Cooper says in the video. “But I think tonight proves that if you listen and you focus and you step out your comfort zone, you can achieve anything in life.”
