'Harry Potter' and Emma Stone Are the People's Choices
Seemingly all of Hollywood stepped out for the People's Choice Awards on Wednesday night, where "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2," Emma Stone and Johnny Depp emerged as the evening's big winners.
The final chapter in the saga of the Boy Who Lived took many awards back to Hogwarts, including Favorite Movie, Favorite Action Movie, Favorite Ensemble Movie Cast and Favorite Book Adaptation. Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint and Tom Felton were all individual nominees for Favorite Movie Star Under 25, though they all lost to the only non-"Potter" nominee, Chloe Moretz.
Emma Stone's star continues to rise as she won both Favorite Movie Actress (for her performances in "The Help", "Friends With Benefits" and "Crazy Stupid Love") and Favorite Comedic Movie Actress (probably for the way she reacted to Ryan Gosling's abs in "Crazy Stupid Love"). Emma will surely continue to be an audience favorite this year with her upcoming turn as Gwen Stacy in "The Amazing Spider-Man," opening July 3.
Johnny Depp's fourth portrayal of Captain Jack Sparrow in "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" and his return to the gonzo world of Hunter S. Thompson in "The Rum Diary" earned him the award of Favorite Movie Actor, whilst his voice work in arguably the best animated film of 2011, "Rango," got him Favorite Animated Movie Voice.
While the much-ballyhooed first public appearance of all three "Hunger Games" stars together in one place ended up being a bit anti-climactic, the People's Choice Awards proved to be a rollicking good time -- and a lucrative evening for some of our favorite movies and celebrities. The nominees and winners of the movie-related awards are below -- you can see the complete list at the PCA's official site.
