Jodie Foster accepts the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress In A Limited Or Anthology Series Or Movie for True Detective: Night Country at the 76th Emmy Awards.
It is indeed possible. In fact, there are about 9 people who have won the Tony and the Oscar for the exact same role (Viola Davis in FENCES, Jack Albertson in THE SUBJECT WAS ROSES and many more). Jodie joins a somewhat similar group albeit for wildly different characters. Cynthia Erivo went one step further by winning a Grammy, an Emmy, and a Tony all for the same role (her stage role in THE COLOR PURPLE musical helped her win all 3).
This is her first regular television role outside of a few guest spots in the 60s and 70s, so it’s not all that surprising she hasn’t won before now. She was nominated previously as a director and a producer.
Not hard at all. You must have forgotten that before Game of Thrones TV was considered an inherently inferior medium compared to films and therefore people who were successful movie actors never bothered to do any television because there was no point in it. Only now, when the prestige of television has increased immensely, movie stars have started to appear on TV as well.

58 years into her legendary career and still reaping awards & giving bravura performances. That's why jodie will always be a GOAT. She takes years between projects when she returns its masterstroke.
Juno Temple got robbed. They aren't voting for the best but rather the name, body of work, nostalgia. Jody was good. The show was ok. But Fargo and Juno Temple were brilliant.
Jodie Foster is an actor of exceptional talent, depth and beauty who was always ahead of her peers, by the time actors of her age were in their diapers she was making commercials, by the time they learned to speak, she was making movies for Disney, by the time they starting going to the school, she was winning awards and getting nominated for the Oscars, by the time they decided to enter films, Jodie decided to leave it behind and enjoy the ivy league world which she graduated with magna cum laude, by the time her peers had their breakthrough she already had won two Oscars and transitioned to the director's chair. An extraordinary talent, who's contribution to cinema is unparalleled and exquisite. A sheer gift to the world of acting and filmmaking.
I had the absolute pleasure of working with her while she was directing in Winnipeg of all places. Amazing positive energy, multi talented, one of a kind ❤
@@13thvoz It is so so so wonderful to see. And then there's Jodie Foster, who's another very real kind of beautiful as well 💜 I cannot take my eyes off Lily Gladstone whenever she's on screen... Her whole-everything-she's just mesmerizing to me. And she makes cool fashion choices.
Yes - the award went to nostalgia, body of work, not for who truly gave the best performance. That would have been Juno Temple then Sophia Vergara, IMO.
@@sitori2509"I knew it" might mean that she knew Jodie is the best. I think that Juno Temple deserved it the most, but Foster's win is also a good one. Vergara was fifth for me.
Sadly that won't ever happen because she refuses to do plays. And we have John Hinckley and some other dude with a gun to thank for that. Go google it, it's too long of a story to write on a RU-vid comment.
Marcia Gay Harden could have done it this year since she was nominated for emmy for guest actress at the creative emmys had she won. She aleeady has a tony and an oscar.
This woman is the very definition of exceptional. She has a different legacy, which no actor in Hollywood (even meryl streep) has. Jodie's remarkable intellect, unlikely for an actor to have, is one of thr reasons, why I'm so fascinated by her.
I know it's her 1st but I still wanted to see Sofia to win. She is soo good. I swear the studio promise the nominees they will for sure win just to get them to show up
Some imbeciles here saying she won bcoz she's jodie foster, need to watch true detective night country. It's another intelligent, searing & not to mention iconic performance from this legend.
People keep saying "I can't believe this is her first Emmy win" like she's been snubbed but she doesn't work in TV. She directs and was nommed for Orange is the New Black but this is her first major TV role.
I love this woman! What an outstanding actress and such a wonderful person! Very well deserved! She’ll always be one of my favourite actresses of all times!🩷🩷🩷👏🏻👏🏻
