Deadline: The lead acting movie and limited series categories often offer plenty of juicy opportunities for Oscar nominees and winners to add a Primetime Emmy Award to their mantels. This year is no exception with the contest boasting a past Oscar nominee and two winners. Five of the six names on the ballot are first-time Emmy contenders, while the sixth—Ricky Gervais—found his way in when Netflix classified one of his Derek programs as a “special,” even though it comes from a show that actually was nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series in 2014. It is the kind of ploy that has worked in the past for such series stars as Ashley Judd and Laura Linney, who wound up in these categories on a technicality. At any rate, the range of talent and big movie names is always impressive here.
