Ethan wins Independent Spirit Award for First Reformed

Ethan received the 2018 Independent Spirt Award for Best Male Lead for First Reformed! He was not able to attend the awards due to his Broadway schedule for True West, but his First Reformed co-star Amanda Seyfried accepted in his place.

Watch Amanda’s speech on Ethan’s behalf below.

Just completed a two-show day on Broadway with True West so sending my gratitude to everyone at the Spirit Awards, especially my friend and costar Amanda Seyfried who accepted this award on my behalf! It has been an honor to play Reverend Toller in the great Paul Schrader’s First Reformed. Thank you, Paul, Amanda, Cedric The Entertainer, Philip and all of our cast and crew. - Ethan
