During the 2015 SAG Awards Sunday night Lupita Nyong’o and Jared Leto announced that Ruffalo had won for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Miniseries or Television for playing Ned Weeks in HBO’s The Normal Heart.

“Upon waking and hearing from my wife and kids that I won a @sagawards for #TheNormalHeart Love wins tonight!” Ruffalo captioned his selfie, which showed him in pajamas in bed.
