Maiki Madison became the recipient of an Oscar award in March 2025! The star of the movie «Anora» has made her mark in the film industry and has the full support of the world from her family. Attending the Oscar award ceremony, Maiki thanked her parents and siblings, including her twin, whom she joked had no «choice» but to be her «best friend».
Read on to learn all about Maiki’s brothers and sisters.
Before landing the role of Ani in Sean Baker’s film «Anora», Maiki appeared in two well-known films, in both of which she played characters who died in a fire: Quentin Tarantino’s «Once Upon a Time in Hollywood» and «Scream» in 2022. Prior to that, she starred in the TV series «Best Things» from 2016 to 2022.
Maiki was born and raised in Los Angeles, which she mentioned in her speech at the 2025 Oscars.
«I grew up in Los Angeles, but Hollywood always seemed so far away to me», - Maiki said, gratefully accepting her first Oscar award.
Originally from California, Maiki has opened up several times about her family. In November 2024, Maiki gushed to USA Today about her twin brother Miles and how she wanted his feedback on her performance in «Anora».
«I was nervous for my family to see it, because you want them to like your work», - she explained. «My twin is my close friend, so I could ask him, 'Did you like it? Do you think I’m a good actor?' It’s embarrassing to admit, but he was silent when he saw it for the first time. He said, 'Maiki, I didn’t even see you, I just saw the character'. It was very special to hear that from him».
Maiki has two brothers and two sisters, all of whom she thanked in her Oscar speech.
«Thank you Neon, FilmNation, and Universal, thank you to my incredible family, my mom, my dad, my sister, my younger brother, and my twin Miles», - she said, adding jokingly, «Thank you for being my best friend, even though you have no choice»
