Rosamund Pike is the surprise winner of the Golden Globe for best actress in a movie musical or comedy for her work in “I Care a Lot.”

Pike took home the virtual trophy on Sunday night for her role in the dark comedy as a woman who poses as a saintly legal guardian to use the courts to bilk elderly people of everything they’re worth.

The 42-year-old British actor appeared genuinely stunned to win the award in her third Globe nomination over fellow nominees Kate Hudson, Michelle Pfeiffer, Maria Bakalova and Anya Taylor-Joy.
