The actress, known for her distinctive husky voice and natural charm, is moving into an even more experimental phase of her career, primarily through her continued collaboration with visionary director Yorgos Lanthimos. These upcoming projects, which include a bizarre new comedy and a secretive anthology film, are poised to redefine her already impressive filmography and keep fans and critics alike on the edge of their seats.

The Poor Things Aftermath: A New Era of Awards and Artistic Risk
Emma Stone's portrayal of Bella Baxter in Yorgos Lanthimos's surreal black comedy, *Poor Things*, was a defining moment of her career. The performance was universally lauded, leading to a near-sweep of the 2024 awards season.
The significance of this second Oscar win, coming after her success with *La La Land*, is that it firmly establishes her as one of the few actresses to achieve this feat before the age of 36. Her win for *Poor Things* secured the Best Actress Oscar, as well as the BAFTA Award, the Golden Globe Award, and the Critics' Choice Movie Award for the role. The only major award she missed was the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Award, which went to Lily Gladstone for *Killers of the Flower Moon*.
The role of Bella Baxter—a woman with the mind of an infant who rapidly develops—was a massive artistic gamble, involving extensive physical comedy, emotional vulnerability, and a significant amount of on-screen nudity. This willingness to take on such a challenging and provocative role has signaled a new phase in her career, emphasizing creative freedom over traditional Hollywood fare.
A curious footnote to her Oscar night success was a minor wardrobe malfunction: her custom Louis Vuitton dress broke at the back while she was accepting her award on stage. She humorously attributed the incident to her co-star Ryan Gosling's performance of "I'm Just Ken."

The Private Life of Emma Stone: Husband, Child, and Property
Despite her high-profile career, Emma Stone maintains a fiercely private personal life, especially concerning her family with husband Dave McCary.
Family Life with Dave McCary
Stone married writer and director Dave McCary in 2020 after dating for several years. McCary is an Emmy-nominated writer and segment director for *Saturday Night Live* (SNL), though he is now also a partner in Stone’s production company, Fruit Tree.
Their daughter, Louise Jean McCary, was born in March 2021. Her daughter’s name, Louise Jean, is a tribute to Stone's grandmother, Jean Louise, and her own birth name, Emily Jean Stone. The family is rarely seen in public, a conscious effort to keep their private life out of the Hollywood spotlight.
The Austin Mansion Sale
In a recent update, Stone and McCary sold a newly renovated Austin, Texas mansion. The sale, which was finalized in late 2025/early 2026, was notable because the couple never actually lived in the property. This move suggests the couple is consolidating their primary residences, reinforcing their commitment to a more focused, private lifestyle away from the public eye.
Emma Stone’s Legacy: From Easy A to Oscar Gold
Emma Stone’s career trajectory is a masterclass in versatility, moving effortlessly between different genres and roles. Her early career was defined by breakout comedy roles in films like *Superbad* and *Easy A*. She then transitioned into blockbuster roles as Gwen Stacy in *The Amazing Spider-Man* franchise, before proving her dramatic chops in films like *Birdman* and her Oscar-winning role in *La La Land*.
Her work in *The Favourite* (2018), another collaboration with Yorgos Lanthimos, earned her a third Academy Award nomination. Her recent television work in the Showtime series *The Curse* (2023), a dark satire, further demonstrated her willingness to tackle unconventional material, a trend that is clearly continuing with her upcoming 2025 slate, including *Bugonia* and *Eddington*. Her ability to pivot between major studio productions and highly artistic, independent projects ensures her continued relevance and topical authority in the film industry for years to come.
