The Oscar prize, also known as the Academy Award, is one of the most prestigious awards in the film industry. Winning an Oscar can bring significant commercial value to the winners, including opening up new opportunities and bringing in more cash and fame. In this article, we will give you more insights to understand what Oscar winners can benefit from their wins.
Increased Opportunities
Winning an Oscar can open up numerous opportunities for actors, directors, and other film industry professionals. For example, Mahershala Ali won the Best Supporting Actor Oscar in 2017 for his role in Moonlight. After winning the Oscar, Ali received numerous offers for leading roles in films and television shows. For example, he played the villain in the Marvel film “Luke Cage” and starred in the critically acclaimed films “Green Book” and “Alita: Battle Angel.” In 2019, he was named one of TIME Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in the World.
Similarly, Bong Joon-ho won the Best Director and Best Picture Oscars in 2020 for his film Parasite. The win brought him international recognition and led to new opportunities, including a television series deal with HBO.
Higher Salaries
Winning an Oscar can also lead to higher salaries for film industry professionals. For example, before winning the Oscar, Mahershala Ali’s salary for a leading role was around $75,000. However, after his win, he was able to negotiate a salary of $1 million for his role in the third season of “True Detective.”
Similarly, before winning the Best Actress Oscar in 2017 for her role in “La La Land,” Emma Stone’s salary for a leading role was around $3 million. However, after her win, she was able to negotiate a salary of $10 million for her role in the 2018 film “Battle of the Sexes.”. Another example, Jordan Peele won the Best Original Screenplay Oscar in 2018 for his film Get Out. His win helped him secure a $30 million budget for his next film, Us, which he wrote and directed. Prior to his win, his net worth was estimated at $12 million.
Greater Recognition
Most of actresses and actors have gained greater recognition to film industry professionals after they’ve won an Oscar statue. For example, Lupita Nyong was an unknown name in the film industry before she won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar in 2014 for her role in 12 Years a Slave. However, after her win she became one of the most popular actresses talked about on the media and was sought after by many leading magazines and directors for their new projects. Similarly, very few people in the film industry outside of Mexico knew Alejandro González Iñárritu before he won the Best Director Oscar in 2015 for his film Birdman. His win helped him gain international recognition and led to more opportunities, including directing the critically acclaimed film The Revenant.
The two outstanding Asian actors of the Oscar-winning movie “Everything Everywhere All at Once,” Ke Huy Quan and Michelle Yoeh, have also benefited much from the 95th Academy Awards. This is the first time in history that two Asian actors have won at an Oscar season, and an Asian film set a record by winning a record-breaking seven Oscars. This will undoubtedly give many actors, as well as the film’s directors and other team members, more opportunities, better pay, and more recognition in the industry.
In summation, even though winning an Oscar does not come with a cash award, its commercial value far exceeds the value of the Oscar statue itself. Everyone who wins an Oscar will benefit greatly from it, such as more opportunities, better salaries, and greater recognition. From the countless instances we provided above, it can be inferred that the Oscar trophy is still among the most valuable and renowned honors in the film industry.
