Us Weekly’s Emmys 2023 Predictions: HBO Will Dominate Nominations With ‘Succession,’ ‘The Last of Us’ and More
usmagazine.comUs Weekly is predicting who will be in the running for a golden statuette at the 2023 Emmys — and HBO is likely set up to dominate across the board.The network’s biggest juggernaut, Succession, wrapped up its fourth and final season in May.
While the show has a whopping 48 Emmy nominations and 13 awards overall so far, only three of those wins have been for acting. Matthew Macfadyen took home the Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series trophy in 2022 for his portrayal of Tom Wambsgans, while Jeremy Strong won in 2020 for Oustanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for Kendall Roy.
That same year, Cherry Jones nabbed an award for Oustanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series for her role as Nan Pierce.This year, however, the show will likely see a great number of acting nods in all categories alongside its Oustanding Drama Series nomination due to the cast’s heavyweight performances.
The lead actor race is particularly loaded with Kieran Culkin, who portrays youngest sibling Roman Roy, moving himself up from supporting actor to join Roy family patriarch Brian Cox and Strong. Alexander Skarsgård and Nicholas Braun — who play tech titan Lukas Matsson and Cousin Greg, respectively — may also land in the supporting category next to Macfadyen.Sarah Snook, meanwhile, is a frontrunner in the lead actress race for her complicated role as Shiv Roy.
