During his time as Tyrion Lannister in HBO’s “Game of Thrones,” Peter Dinklage emerged as a formidable presence at the Emmys, securing four wins out of eight nominations. However, the talent of the “Game of Thrones” cast was so exceptional that many of them continue to be strong contenders at the Emmys, even after the show’s conclusion and their transition to new ventures. Now, let’s delve into the “Game of Thrones” alumni who have the potential to vie for recognition at this year’s Emmys.
One such alumnus is Jonathan Pryce, who has made notable appearances in “The Crown” and “Slow Horses.”
Another actor from “Game of Thrones” who deserves recognition for his captivating performance as the High Sparrow is now garnering attention for his portrayal of Prince Phillip in “The Crown.” Pryce’s Prince Phillip may not have as prominent a role as Matt Smith’s version, but he delivers notable moments, particularly through his intellectual connections with other women that he shares with the Queen. In our Emmy odds chart for Best Drama Supporting Actor, Pryce currently ranks third, with only Billy Crudup and Jon Hamm from “The Morning Show” ahead of him. Our predicted nominees in this category also include Tadanobu Asano (“Shōgun”), Khalid Abdalla (“The Crown”), Nathan Lane (“The Gilded Age”), Mark Duplass (“The Morning Show”), and Jack Lowden (“Slow Horses”). Additionally, we anticipate Pryce to receive a Best Drama Guest Actor nomination for his role in “Slow Horses,” alongside Nestor Carbonell.
Jonathan Pryce, known for his roles in “Game of Thrones” and “The Two Popes,” has received Emmy nominations for his performances in the miniseries “Shōgun,” as well as in the series “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” alongside John Turturro, and “Fallout” alongside Michael Emerson and Kyle MacLachlan. This marks Pryce’s third and fourth Emmy nominations, following his previous nods in 1993 for “Barbarians at the Gate” and in 2010 for “Cranford.”
