Who are the big favorites at the 2019 Emmys?
Again the Emmys awards move the opinion of millions of lovers of television series for months before the award ceremony, and it is not for less, of the expected record in nominations for Game of Thrones to certain series and characters that were not nominated, many walk lines of opinion, tastes, criticism but above all excitement to start discussing and knowing from and who are the favorites to win the 2019 Emmy Awards.
The list and ranking of nominees is immense, but to satisfy the search for favorites in the most interesting nominations of the public, we will briefly analyze those nominations to show who has the best chance of winning the 2019 Emmy statuette in that line or category. We go with the best dramatic series, leading and supporting actors and actresses in dramatic series, the awards that create the most expectation.
Outstanding Drama Series at the 2019 Emmys Points to Game of Thrones
You don't have to be a great expert, a critic (in fact, they are the least successful), you even need to be a great movie buff to know immediately that the great favorite as the best dramatic series of the year is Game of Thrones, even if the criticism at the end of its last season, it continues to be a great season in general and the expectation that next year's prequel already creates, keeps Game of Thrones in the minds of its fans as the best of the best, it will undoubtedly be the big favorite of the night.
Best Leading Actor in a Drama Series
It is a category in which there is not something as clearly defined as a favorite as we can say of Game of Thrones, for which we can clearly outline two great favorites to win the statuette at the 2019 Emmy Awards:
Bob Odenkirk for Better Call Saul seems to have some advantage, being a prequel to another quite famous series such as Breaking Dad, one would say that there is a wear on the plot but the character of James Morgan "Jimmy" McGill makes us a kind of anti-hero, rogue when it suits him, with a somewhat murky story and tactics and with something much murkier locked up, he seems to be the great candidate. Milo Ventimiglia of "This is Us" is the other candidate with some strength for this award.
Emilia Clarke looks like a favorite for Leading Actress in a dramatic series
This young woman, who has performed an excellent performance as Daenerys Targaryen in the well-known HBO series, seems to walk steadily towards the statuette. Although there is level competition, you could bet that Emilia Clarke will be the best leading actress in a dramatic series at the 2019 Emmy Awards.
Jodie Comer and Sandra Oh, both nominated for "Killing Eve", seem to have a chance if the award ceremony does not take a decisive path to setting a new award record for the same series with Game of Thrones, something difficult with the quality of the series and number of nominees.
As best supporting actress Lena Headey of Game of Thrones
In a category where George RR Martin's series has four out of six nominees, all with well-acted characters, there is no doubt that it will be a statuette for HBO and for Game of Thrones, now, between Lena Headey and Maisie Williams, the statuette will surely be, with a penchant for the former.
A very well carried out interpretation of the role of Queen Cersei Lannister, although in the last season she was one of the "falls" in the massacre, we can say that the air of queen was always felt in her at all times, perhaps for that reason she also interpreted to a queen in "300". Maisie Williams in her role as Arya Stark made merits and a surprise is not ruled out, but due to the strength of her role, it is normal to bow to "the Lannister queen".
Best Supporting Actor has Peter Dinklage as the big favorite for the 2019 Emmy
His brilliant performance as Tyrion Lannister has earned him three Emmy Awards and a nomination in each of the seasons. Last year he raised his statuette and this little boy is one of the greatest actors in the series. Winning this year would give him a nice record of 8 nominations and 4 awards, what in baseball they would call an average of 500 or 50% effectiveness.
But outside the cabal and baseball, his role always maintained a high level, just like queen Cersei is one of those actors who enter his role so much that seeing them outside the series is to continue imagining the character. If this seems little, the story of Peter Dinklage as a person is that of a true fighter, someone who has made space in the acting world as one of the greats without stopping (before taking advantage) of his discharge — but not at all limited — stature.
