Lupita Nyong'o

Last night, I got to celebrate what I believe is one of the most compelling film performances of the year: Wagner Moura in The Secret Agent. Kleber Mendonça Filho’s film is EXTRAORDINARY and I was thrilled to honor Wagner as Best Actor at the New York Film Critics Circle Awards. Tudo de bom!! 🌟🌟🌟 @‌thesecretagentfilm reminds us that the most interesting stories aren’t about heroes or villains, but about human beings trying to navigate impossible circumstances. Don’t miss it!!! 💯💯💯 #TheSecretAgent #WagnerMoura #KleberMendonçaFilho #EmilieLesclaux

In with the new! ✨ Wishing the NEW Mayor of New York City, @zohrankmamdani the very best on his first day in office! Let’s GOOOO! ❤️💛💙

My 2025 in a 25-second flash 📸 Whew! (Disclaimer: These are definitely just the highlights - there were plenty of lowlights, but I was too busy crying through them to grab my phone and capture them 😭❤️!) I treasure each moment I had this year to work and play with colleagues, family, friends, my dear Yoyo, and especially my brother and scene partner @juniornyongo. 🥹❤️🎭 To all of you here who expressed your support when I shared my #Fibroids story, I am eternally grateful. Your comments, stories, and messages made me feel less alone and more motivated to raise my voice for better care and outcomes for women. The fibroid awareness mission continues in 2026! In the meantime, if you want to show your support, go to foundationwomenshealth.org/lupita. Link in bio. Take care and have a restful holiday 🫶🏿🫶🏿🫶🏿

Mayor-elect Mamdani, soon to be Mayor Mamdani!! “On January 1st, what New Yorkers will expect is that we get to the work of DELIVERING not of DELIBERATING” ❤️💛💙 Support Team Zohran’s transition period as they prepare for office at transition2025.com 🙌🏿
