Records

Kieran Culkin's trophy case reflects a career built on sharp, layered performances. He is one of the few actors to win both an Emmy and an Oscar for two distinct roles in consecutive years: Roman Roy on Succession and Benji in A Real Pain. His two Golden Globes in 2024 made him a rare double winner in the same year across film and television. The Critics' Choice Award he won at age 20 for Igby Goes Down marked him early as a talent to watch. Culkin's ability to pivot between sardonic comedy and raw dramatic vulnerability has made him a favorite among critics and audiences alike.

AwardsCulkin has won an Academy Award, a BAFTA, a Primetime Emmy, and two Golden Globes. His Oscar and BAFTA came for Best Supporting Actor in A Real Pain (2024). He won the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for Succession (2023). His Golden Globes include Best Actor in a Drama Series for Succession (2024) and Best Supporting Actor for A Real Pain (2024).
