The Emmy Awards are just days away, and debates are heating up over who will claim the top prize and who will walk away with the most Emmy awards. While many have their favorites and others seen as frontrunners, I believe these five will walk away with their own gold.
Jed Mercurio (writer) brings home gold for 'Bodyguard'
Netflix's "Bodyguard" has become a hit show for the streaming giant. In the Best Drama Series category, the show is facing some strong competition. Richard Madden ended up being snubbed from a nomination, leaving the show's last shot for Outstanding Writing for a Drama category. Show creator Jed Mercurio earned a nomination for the first chapter of the series.
Bill Hader brings home gold for 'Barry'
SNL former star Bill Hader takes his comedy to new heights with 'Barry.' The show itself has earned 17 Emmy nominations, including a nomination for Hader himself. Hader's directorial work on the episode of 'Ronny/Lily" secured him an Outstanding Directing in a Comedy Series nomination. The show is expected to take home multiple awards.
Outstanding Writing for a Limited Series or TV Movie: Craig Mazin (writer) brings home gold for writing limited series 'Chernobyl'
HBO series 'Chernobyl' is up for awards as well. Craig Mazin takes his work to the small screen with the mini-series.
Stellan Skarsgard brings home gold for supporting actor role in 'Chernobyl'
Swedish acting legend Stellan Skarsgard continues to expand his resume. After his work on the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he took on a role in 'Chernobyl.' Many are surprised it took him this long to secure a nomination.
Supporting Actor Michael Kelly brings home gold for work in 'House of Cards'
Netflix's "House of Cards" struggled to survive in a post-Kevin Spacey world. However, Michael Kelly kept the show afloat and brought the series to a fitting finale for a series that revolutionized Netflix.
