The Gilded Age aims for huge Emmy bid with 37 submissions
HBO’s historical drama The Gilded Age has entered the Emmy race with a substantial 37 submissions, Variety reveals. This includes a nomination for outstanding drama series, submissions for 15 main cast members, and the season finale "In Terms of Winning and Losing," which represents director Michael Engler and writer Julian Fellowes.
Lead actors Carrie Coon and Morgan Spector, who portray Bertha and George Russell, are contenders in the lead acting categories. Coon, previously nominated for an Emmy for the third season of the anthology crime series Fargo in 2017, is well positioned to secure her second nomination, competing against Anna Sawai, Jennifer Aniston, and Emma Stone.
Furthermore, this is shaping up to be a significant year for Coon; she could find herself in the Oscar race later this year for her outstanding performance in Azazel Jacobs' family drama His Three Daughters, alongside Natasha Lyonne and Elizabeth Olsen.
Spector, best known for his role as Dante Allen in the seventh season of Homeland, is aiming for his first major acting recognition. He will be competing against notable actors such as Gary Oldman, Dominic West, and Walton Goggins.
A multitude of supporting actors, including series regulars and recurring characters, will vie for the eight available slots in both the supporting actor and actress categories. Emmy favorites Christine Baranski and Cynthia Nixon are well-positioned to secure additional nominations. Baranski, who plays the steadfast socialite Agnes van Rhijn, has garnered an impressive 15 Emmy nominations, winning her first in 1995 for her supporting role in Cybill. She has also been recognized for her memorable performances in Frasier, The Big Bang Theory, and The Good Wife.
Meanwhile, production designer Bob Shaw, a previous winner for Season 1, is likely to be in contention for another award. In contrast, the costumes for this second season, crafted by designer Kasia Walicka Maimone and her team, seek redemption after being overlooked during the first season.
