A cerimonia da 1ª edición dos Óscar tivo lugar en 1929, e nela Emil Jannings gañou o premio polas súas interpretacións en The Last Command e The Way of All Flesh.^[1]

Actualmente, as candidaturas determínanse mediante voto singular transferible entre os membros da rama de intérpretes da Academia. Os gañadores elíxense mediante voto plural entre todos os membros con dereito a voto da Academia.^[2] Nas primeiras tres edicións dos premios, os actores eran candidatos por todo o seu traballo durante o período (ata por tres filmes nalgúns casos).^[3] Porén, durante a 3ª cerimonia, de 1930, só se citou un filme no premio final, aínda que o gañador tivese varios filmes na candidatura.^[4]

O ano seguinte, o sistema, complexo e pouco manexable, foi substituído polo actual, en que un actor é candidato por unha interpretación específica nun único filme.^[3] A partir da 9ª cerimonia, de 1937, a categoría limitouse a cinco candidaturas.^[3] Cinco actores foron candidatos postumamente, James Dean (en dúas ocasións), Spencer Tracy, Massimo Troisi, Chadwick Boseman^[5] e o gañador Peter Finch.^[6]

Lista dos premiados

Emil Jannings foi o primeiro gañador nesta categoría polas súas interpretacións en The Last Command (1928) e The Way of All Flesh (1927).

Daniel Day-Lewis foi o primeiro actor que gañou o premio en tres ocasións, por O meu pé esquerdo (1989), There Will Be Blood (2007) e Lincoln (2012)

Spencer Tracy foi o primeiro actor que gañou o premio dous anos consecutivos, por Captains Courageous (1937) e Boys Town (1938). Recibiu outras sete candidaturas.

Laurence Olivier gañou pola súa interpretación en Hamlet (1948), filme que dirixiu el mesmo.^[7]

Sidney Poitier foi o primeiro actor negro que gañou por Os lirios do val (1963).^[8]

Tom Hanks gañou dous premios consecutivos por Filadelfia (1993) e Forrest Gump (1994).

Coa súa vitoria por La vita è bella (1998), Roberto Benigni converteuse no segundo actor en gañar o premio por un papel no que dirixiu a el mesmo^[7] e no primeiro gañador en lingua non inglesa.

Con 29 anos, Adrien Brody é o actor máis novo en gañar o premio pola súa interpretación de Władysław Szpilman en O pianista (2002).

Jean Dujardin foi o primeiro actor francés en gañar o premio po The Artist (2011).^[9]
