Critics Choice Awards Fashion: Ariana Grande, Angelina Jolie and More Best Dressed Celebs
The critics have made their choice.
At 2025 Critics Choice Awards, plenty of movies and TV shows—ranging from pop-u-lar blockbusters to streaming smash hits—were honored by the American-Canadian Critics Choice Association.
In the film department, Wicked entered the ceremony with a whopping 11 nominations, including Best Actress for Cynthia Erivo and Best Supporting Actress for Ariana Grande—but it was director Jon M. Chu who took home a trophy for Best Director.
“I will be real with you,” he said onstage. “We get to tell stories for our life. I’d been waiting to not think about algebra or grammar ever again. I just wanted to make movies. I wanted to work with my friends. I wanted to share whatever it is we had in our heads that week, that year, in our childhood.”
Jon added, “I feel very privileged to be here, to be telling the stories to the world with all of you out here.”
