Wes Anderson won his first Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film for the Netflix short film 'The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar' during the 96th Oscars. The film, which marks Anderson's first Oscar win after 22 years and eight nominations, was among his previously nominated works including 'Royal Tenebaums', 'Fantastic Mr Fox', 'Moonrise Kingdom', 'Grand Budapest Hotel', and 'Isle of Dogs'. Notably, Anderson did not attend the ceremony to accept the award in person due to his new film's production starting early Monday morning. Additionally, Anderson's win also made him the first Texas director to achieve this honor. Following the win, Netflix announced 'The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Three More' as an anthology, set to premiere on March 15.
