The 2019 Oscars ceremony arrived on Sunday (February 24) with the stars out to celebrate Hollywood's best performances and work over the past year. Among the big winners for the night were "Green Book" and "Black Panther" as each captured multiple awards. Here's a look at the five winners in the annual awards show's biggest categories.
'Green Book' - Best Picture winner
In what may have been a surprising win, "Green Book" took home Best Picture on Sunday night. "Roma" was the slight favorite heading into the big awards show. Its director claimed the prize for Best Director and then "Green Book" stunned many people by claiming the night's final award.

Rami Malek - Best Actor Winner
Malek wowed audiences and critics with his performance as the Queen lead singer Freddie Mercury in "Bohemian Rhapsody." He can now add the Oscar to his trophies alongside his Emmy for TV's "Mr. Robot."
In a heartfelt speech, Oscar winner Rami Malek praises his mom, says he knows his dad is looking down on him, thanks Queen, and says the world "is longing for stories" about people being "unapologetically" themselves.
