Awards season has barely begun, and one of the stars of streaming’s most decorated shows is weighing in on the debate over whether legacy awards shows such as the Oscars, Emmys and BAFTAs should fuse their gendered acting categories to avoid a binary system.
Awards season has barely begun, and one of the stars of streaming’s most decorated shows is weighing in on the debate over whether legacy awards shows such as the Oscars, Emmys and BAFTAs should fuse their gendered acting categories to avoid a binary system.
Emma Corrin, who starred in Season 4 of the “The Crown,” told BBC News in an interview published over the weekend, “I hope for a future in which that happens.”
Corrin, who identifies with the pronouns they/them, was nominated for a Primetime Emmy in 2021 for playing Princess Diana in “The Crown.” They were nominated in the outstanding lead actress in a drama series category.
“I don’t think the categories are inclusive enough at the moment,” Corrin, who won a Golden Globe last year for the same role in the best performance by an actress in a television series – drama category, told the BBC.
