After winning the Oscar, the actress later revealed in an interview that she did not feel any difference after the win. In an interview with InStyle, the Kong: Skull Island actress revealed that Jennifer Lawrence was the one that helped her out with the situation. Jennifer Lawrence stated that the Oscar award acted like a certificate of validation only.

“I was like, ‘I don’t feel any different. I don’t feel better about myself. I still don’t feel like I’m a good actress. She was like, ‘Oh, yeah. That’s totally normal. I’ve had the same thing. Don’t think of it like that. Think of it as, like, you got your Ph.D. You’re certified; that’s it. It doesn’t change anything. You can still fuck up. Every judge is still human.’” 

The sound advice indeed helped the actor out since she still does not feel any different and continued to work normally like she used to. The actress recently starred in Fast X and with the character that she portrayed, it seems that she may have a future in the Fast family.
