Paul looked as handsome as ever as he donned a simple, yet perfectly tailored suit after scooping the night's top award, 

Hot off the tails of his critically acclaimed turn in Antman, the Clueless star was feted with the prize, which was presented to him by Bridesmaids actor Chris O'Dowd. 

While handing over the award, Chris joked: 'When Marvel decided to bring the story of Ant Man to the big screen, they scoured the land to find a man witty, brave and short enough to fit in the costume. But when Danny DeVito got shingles, this man gracefully stepped into his shoes.'

The pair happily posed for pictures together after the show as Paul clutched his prized gong.
