    First-Time Emmy Winners, From Jodie Foster to Lamorne Morris

    by

    Jodie Foster added to her awards collection while the stars of “Shogun” and “Baby Reindeer” helped propel their shows to big nights.Several familiar faces gave acceptance speeches at the Emmy Awards on Sunday night, with Jon Stewart back after a lengthy hiatus from “The Daily Show” and the restaurateurs played by Jeremy Allen White and Ebon Moss-Bachrach cooking yet again for “The Bear.”But much of the night’s excitement came from seeing newcomers take the stage. Here’s what to know about the eight acting winners who received their first Emmys.Best actress in a limited series or TV movieJodie Foster, ‘True Detective’Foster is already a two-time Oscar winner — for her performances in “The Silence of the Lambs” and “The Accused” — but she won her first Emmy for her role as a police chief in “True Detective: Night Country.” Before taking the lead role, Foster hadn’t done substantive television work since her breakthrough role in the 1976 film “Taxi Driver,” when she was barely a teenager. Her two previous Emmy nominations were for directing an episode in the first season of “Orange Is the New Black” and for a producing role in the 1999 television movie “The Baby Dance.”Best supporting actress in a dramaElizabeth Debicki, ‘The Crown’Debicki won for her portrayal of Diana, Princess of Wales, a role that earned her the first two Emmy nominations of her career. Finding her breakthrough in Baz Luhrmann’s 2013 film “The Great Gatsby,” Debicki has had a career largely focused on film, including in the Christopher Nolan movie “Tenet” and “Vita and Virginia,” in which she played the writer Virginia Woolf. “Playing this part based on this unparalleled, incredible human being has been my great privilege,” she said of her role on “The Crown” in her acceptance speech.Best supporting actress in a comedy seriesLiza Colón-Zayas, ‘The Bear’Colón-Zayas has been an actress in film, TV and theater since the 1990s, often appearing in one-episode arcs in series such as “Law & Order” and “Sex and the City” and in Off Broadway plays, nurturing a close collaboration with the playwright Stephen Adly Guirgis. In Tina, a no-nonsense chef in “The Bear,” she found a true breakout role. In her acceptance speech, she thanked the showrunners for the part they played in her late-career success, saying, “Thank you, thank you, thank you for giving me a new life with this show.”Best supporting actor in a limited series or TV movieLamorne Morris, ‘Fargo’We are having trouble retrieving the article content.Please enable JavaScript in your browser settings.Thank you for your patience while we verify access.

      Elizabeth Debicki Discusses Her Second Emmy Nomination for Princess Diana

      by

      Elizabeth Debicki earned an Emmy nomination for outstanding supporting actress in a drama series on Wednesday, her second nomination for playing Princess Diana on “The Crown.”The Australian actress took over the role from Emma Corrin starting in Season 5 of the Netflix series about the British royal family and embodied Diana through the implosion of her marriage to Prince Charles. Season 6, the show’s final one, includes the 1997 car crash that killed Diana, her boyfriend Dodi Fayed and their driver, Henri Paul, as they fled the paparazzi in Paris.The final season of “The Crown” received 18 nominations overall, including for outstanding drama series. Other acting nominations went to Dominic West as Prince Charles, for lead actor in a drama series; Imelda Staunton as Queen Elizabeth II, for lead actress; Jonathan Pryce as Prince Philip, for supporting actor; and Claire Foy for reprising her role as a younger Elizabeth, for guest actor.Debicki will also be competing against Lesley Manville, who played Princess Margaret, in the supporting actress race.For Debicki, receiving the nomination was a bittersweet cap on the experience of playing Diana.“It dawns on you that it’s done,” she said by phone just after the Emmy nominations were announced on Wednesday. “You don’t get to go back. You know while you’re doing it that this will be a totally one-off experience. Nothing will touch this. Nothing is like this. That’s the pill to swallow as the actor.”In a brief interview, Debicki discussed playing Diana and receiving the nomination.

      ‘The Crown’ Auction Could Help You Live Like a Queen

      by

      Bonhams is selling hundreds of costumes and props from “The Crown,” including a horse-drawn carriage, robes of state and the queen’s bed.Despite all the scandals and tragedies, the royal lifestyle in “The Crown” looked enviably lavish.During six seasons, Queen Elizabeth II rode around London in a golden carriage, pulled by six horses. Princess Diana gallivanted, and moped, her way across Europe in a succession of designer outfits. For special occasions, the royals donned crowns and ermine robes.For most viewers, watching the show, which ended in December, was the closest they could get to the trappings of royal life.Until now. Sort of.On Feb. 7, the auction house Bonhams is scheduled to offer hundreds of items from “The Crown” in London, including intricate set pieces like a full-size replica of the golden state coach (with an estimated price of up to 50,000 pounds, or $63,000), as well as more affordable props that gave “The Crown” an air of authenticity. Those include two porcelain corgis that appeared on the queen’s writing desk ($380) and the Queen Mother’s drinks tray and champagne swizzle stick ($101).Some items look set to be bargains — relatively speaking. One of Princess Diana’s real dresses sold last year for more than $1 million, and her “revenge dress” — the black evening gown that she wore on the evening that Prince Charles admitted, on national television, to cheating on her — once fetched $74,000. The version of the revenge dress that Elizabeth Debicki wears on “The Crown” has an estimated lot price of $10,000 to $15,000 in the Bonhams sale.In interviews, three members of the show’s costume and set departments discussed some of the auction’s key lots.
