Emma Stone Could Become The Youngest-Ever Person To Win 3 Acting Oscars

If Emma Stone wins another acting Oscar anytime in the next ten years, she will become the youngest person to earn three Academy Awards (for acting). The record is currently held by Walter Brennan, who won three Best ing Actor trophies for his roles in Come and Get It in 1936, Kentucky in 1938, and The Westerner in 1940, by the time he was 46 years old. Brennan set the impressive record more than 80 years ago, so Stone being the first to sur the actor in eight (or nine) decades would be an awe-inspiring accomplishment.

As of the writing of this article, Stone, who is 35 years old, is the only actor or actress under the age of 46 with two Oscars. As a result, Stone is the sole person in the running to beat Brennan's record. The good news is that Stone has ten years to win another Academy Award, and given that only seven years separate her first two wins, she could very easily accomplish this goal. Plus, the talented actress will undoubtedly appear in many more critically acclaimed movies in the next decade.

Despite her young age, Emma Stone has appeared in many critically acclaimed films, from Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) to Poor Things.

Stone is set to star in Kinds of Kindness, a Yorgos Lanthimos (who directed Poor Things) film, which could be Oscar-worthy, given its director and cast. Stone will also reportedly reunite with Lanthimos again for a remake of the 2003 Korean sci-fi comedy Save the Green Planet! Perhaps the accomplished actress only needs one or two years to secure the record as the youngest person to earn three acting Oscars. However, only time will tell if Stone can take the crown from Brennan.
