About Webby Best Actor

Honoring great performances that have redefined the online space, delivering an outstanding performance in a leading role for a digital series or film.

Walton Goggins has delivered a series of unforgettable performances that have elevated streaming entertainment to new heights. With standout roles in Fallout, The White Lotus, and The Righteous Gemstones, Goggins has captivated audiences with his range, intensity, and charisma. From the haunting complexity of The Ghoul, to the scene-stealing swagger of Baby Billy Freeman, to his sharp, sly turn as Rick in The White Lotus, he has crafted some of the most iconic characters in modern digital storytelling.

Goggins’ impact extends beyond scripted television. In 2025, he starred in a viral Super Bowl campaign for GoDaddy, demonstrating his comedic timing and broad audience appeal. His digital presence — from behind-the-scenes content to his feature in Architectural Digest’s "Open Door"— has only deepened fans’ connection to him, transforming admiration into community across social platforms. 

For his masterful performances across streaming, his magnetic digital presence, and his ability to redefine character work for the internet age, it is our great privilege to honor Walton Goggins with the 2025 Webby Actor of the Year.
