Costar Competition: 2019 Emmy nominees up against their castmates
Sometimes your costar is your biggest competition.
The Emmys announced the full list of 2019 nominees on Tuesday morning, and more than one category features a coworker match-up. In other words, people from the same series are competing for an award. Some of the most notable match-ups include This Is Us stars Milo Ventimiglia and Sterling K. Brown both getting nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, Killing Eve stars Jodie Comer and Sandra Oh going head-to-head for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series, and of course, the Game of Thrones of it all. Alfie Allen, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, and Peter Dinklage were all nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series, while Lena Headey, Sophie Turner, Maisie Williams, and Gwendoline Christie were all nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series.
