This has been such an incredible year. I can't believe this. I don't
have a lot of time. I have to thank my incredible director, Patty
Jenkins. Thank you, thank you, thank you. All of our producers,
Brad, Clark, Meagan, Mark, Donald, Sammy Lee, everybody at Media
8, Bob and everybody at Newmarket, thank you so much for working
so hard on this film. My incredible, incredible leading lady Christina
Ricci, who I couldn't have done this film without. You are truly
the unsung hero of this film. I have to thank our entire crew, Toni
G. For transforming me, so incredibly. Every single person who worked
on this film. I couldn't have done it without you guys. My incredible
manager J.J. Harris, who has represented me for so long now and
you've always believed in me. I can't thank you enough. My friend,
Steve Warren, my lawyer, thank you so much. Yes, I know. He's my
friend. Heidi Schaeffer and Amanda Silverman from PMK. My guardian

And I'm bringing this home next week. And I have to thank my incredible
partner in crime, you're one hell of a partner to have. Thank you
so much for standing by me. And my mom. You've sacrificed so much
for me to be able to live here and make my dreams come true. And
there are no words to describe how much I love you. And I'm not
gonna cry. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
