“I just want to thank my family. Because Kit, my scientist son, and Charlie, my actor son who’s starting his career, hopefully you understand the joy, such joy, that comes from doing really hard, meaningful, good work,” she said. “So my boys, I love you, and this, of course, is for you.”

Jodie, who also took home a win at the 2024 Emmy Awards forTrue Detective, told PEOPLE in September thatCharlie and her younger son Kit, 23, are “at that age where they’re starting their careers” right now— “and they’re pretty insecure about what’s gonna happen.”
“But every time they get a joy, like I got an ‘A’ or I got this job or I got an audition, my heart just fills up 14 times because I have this memory of a beautiful career that’s built on doing meaningful work, and I know that’s the recipe for happiness,” she said. “So I’m just thrilled for them, for the future.”
