"Severance, The Penguin, The Studio, The White Lotus and Adolescence are among the big players for the awards, regarded as the highest accolade in television. Starting at 1am tonight Irish time, the 77th Emmy Awards will broadcast live on the CBS Network in the US and be available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+."
"Farrell is widely regarded by US film and movie pundits as the favourite to win for his role in The Penguin, which was a major global ratings hit with TV audiences. A blend of comic-book adaptation and old-school gangster tale, the series charts the murky rise of Farrell's Oz Cobb to the highest echelons of Gotham's dirty crime scene."
"The main competition comes from Liverpool actor Stephen Graham, excellent as a dad trying to come to terms with the actions of his young son in the Netflix smash, Adolescence. Cooper Koch (Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story), Brian Tyree Henry (Dope Thief) and Jake Gyllenhaal (Presumed Innocent) are also shortlisted in this category, Best Actor in a Movie/Limited Series."
