After thanking the young actors in the cast, he added, "You are proof that the world can be better."
"Giving up hatred is our generation’s responsibility. It requires top-down thinking. The possibility seems distant now, but hope is a beautiful thing," he added.

Stephen Graham appeared to read notes from his hand as he took the stage to accept his award. "I just want to congratulate everyone nominated in this category."

"I dedicate this award to my father, my hero, and also to my mother and all my friends and family—you all know who you are, because without you, none of this would be possible," he added.
Owen Cooper referenced his favorite football team, Liverpool, upon receiving his award. "Being here on the Golden Globes stage is unreal. My family and I have been on an incredible journey."
"At first, I thought I’d manage, but then I realized I was no good and risked attending acting classes. I was the only boy there, it was awkward, but I managed. But I still feel like an apprentice, still learning every day (…) from the people in front of me, those who inspire me. I wouldn’t be here without you," he added.
"Here’s to 2026. You’ll never walk alone," he concluded, referencing the famous Liverpool anthem.
