At the recent Academy Awards, former winners returned to introduce nominees in acting categories, including Robert Downey Jr. winning Best Supporting Actor. However, his interaction with the presenter, last year’s winner Ke Huy Quan, was marked by awkwardness as RDJ took the award without acknowledging him. This led to criticism from viewers, though some attributed his behavior to feeling overwhelmed. Comparisons were made to first-time winner Cillian Murphy’s gracious acceptance at the Oscars. Despite the initial awkwardness, photos of RDJ and Ke Huy embracing after the win were shared online, indicating no hard feelings.
