2016 MTV Movie Awards Winners Include Charlize Theron, Daisy Ridley, Chris Pratt And ‘Straight Outta Compton’


Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart hosted the 2016 MTV Movie Awards on Saturday night in Burbank, California. The taped-broadcast is going to air Sunday, April 10 at 8:00 p.m. ET on MTV. Luckily, you won’t have to wait until Sunday night to find out who walked away with awards and who didn’t, as some of the early winners have already been announced, reports the Boston Herald. Winners are being updated throughout the night.

“The story of Fury Road is in part a story of the power of women and the power to create our own destinies,” Charlize Theron said as she accepted the MTV Movie Award for Best Female Performance, for her role as Furiosa in Mad Max: Fury Road.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens star Daisy Ridley won for Breakthrough Performance. “It feels especially amazing to be part of a film that reps all genders… races and ages in such a positive and aspirational way,” Ridley said during her acceptance speech.

Guardians of the Galaxy star Chris Pratt took home the award for Best Action Performance in Jurassic World; Ryan Reynolds won Best Comedic Performance for Deadpool; Amy Poehler won Best Visual Performance for Pixar’s Inside Out. The MTV Generation Award was given to Will Smith and Melissa McCarthy was awarded with the award for Comedic Genius.

The 2016 MTV Movie Awards will feature two musical performances from Ariana Grande and Halsey.

“This will be the first time I perform ‘Castle,'” Halsey said. “This song is so important to me as a woman; it’s about not letting anything get in your way. I’m so happy MTV & The Huntsman are giving me the opportunity to present that message on television. Plus it’ll look sick.”
