Winners of the 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2021 Emmy Awards as a lead actor in a comedy series are still up for grabs. The only problem is that it could be one of three people: Donald Glover, who won it in 2017, Bill Hader, who won it in 2018 and 2019, or Jason Sudeikis, who won it last year. The voters have given us every reason to make one of these three predictions. The other three in this year’s race are nominated for the first time in the category, but two of them are true icons of the entertainment world. This heavyweight group features a category that is by no means easy to predict and could go both ways.
donald glover, atlanta
Glove Series atlanta In 2017, the first season brought an Emmy Award for directing and in this category. The following year he received five personal nominations, including four for all. atlanta. but ever since atlanta He was on hiatus and is finally back this season. love still exists Indications are that he may have been away too long, but Glover has managed to get back into this career. I find it hard to believe that the significant momentum for another win has not been lost.
bill hader, bar
Header has garnered 24 nominations over the course of his career and won an Emmy in this category in the previous two seasons. bar in 2018 and 2019. The long-delayed critical third season performance was outstanding and currently has a total of four nominations this year, including nominations for screenwriting and directing. barAlso in the nomination as a guest actor check your enthusiasm. Hader is definitely a hit with the TV Academy.
Nicholas Hoult, great
Hoult is an interesting prospect for the category, his youngest ever nominee and the only one to never have been nominated for an Emmy, here competing against a quintet of Emmy veterans not only as actors, but in other categories as well. . It’s a tall order, but Hoult is a good match for Elle Fanning in this period based on Russian Empress Catherine the Great, and she definitely has fans.
Steve Martin, Only murders in the building.
A showbiz legend by any definition, it might surprise you to learn that Martin, although nominated 12 times for an Emmy in various capacities, has only won once, his first nomination in 1969, more than half a century ago, as one of the. writers The hour of the brothers’ comedy suffocates. This year he is also named producer and screenwriter. only murdersSo he has three chances of finally getting a book nomination for that old-fashioned Emmy – a good thing, because in that category he has to face up to his good friend and co-star Martin Short.
Martino short, Only murders in the building.
Another icon, he had 13 Lifetime Emmy nominations and two wins, his first as a writer in 1983. SCTV network. Short is excellent at almost everything he does, and if I had to choose between him and Martin, I’d say Short is the kind of scene thief who could even steal an Emmy from his good friend. The two are likely to cancel each other out, making this situation much easier to resolve.
Jason Sudeikis, ted lasso
Sudeikis took this category, and rightfully so, last year ted lassoSeason 1 He won almost every book award for the role, and there’s no doubt he has a strong drive to do it two in a row, but as mentioned, another exSNL An actor named Hader could get in the way. This could be a battle between the underdogs and, whatever the outcome, it could prove to be very interesting.
Expected Winner: BILL HADER, bar
