The Irish actress just won best actress at the actor awards for her role as Agnes in Hamlin. That adds to her, Golden Globe and Bofte victories for the same film. Earlier this week, the ceremony celebrated top TV and film performances. Hamlin draws from a novel about William Shakespeare, his wife, and their family, centering on the death of their son and its possible link to Hamlin. Buckley thanked her co-star Emily Watson during her speech and highlighted how the industry has shaped her career. She's long admired Watson's work and cherishes their shared scenes. The movie earned multiple nominations and wins, by outstanding British film at the Bofte's. Buckley, from County Kerry, trained in music and drama before breaking out on stage and screen. All eyes turn to the Oscars on March 15th, 2026 in Los Angeles. Could this be her next big win?
