Brian Cox may no longer be gracing our screens every Sunday as media mogul Logan Roy, but he's coming for the Emmy crown anyway. Variety reports that Cox is submitting for the Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, despite only appearing in three out of 10 episodes of the latest season of Succession (plus a very brief flashback in episode 6).
Jeremy Strong and Kieran Culkin, who play Cox's on-screen sons Kendall and Roman Roy, have also submitted nominations in the same category. If they all receive nominations, this would be the first time ever that three actors from the same show were all nominated in that category. This has happened three times already in the Leading Actress category, most recently in 2005 for Desperate Housewives' Marcia Cross, Teri Hatcher, and Felicity Huffman.
