NBC Submits for Emmy Nom, Richard Armitage in The Great Red Dragon Episode

here Thanks to @Chrissyinwm

You have to scroll down quite a bit to get to the category Best Guest Actor.

This means that NBC selected The Great Red Dragon Episode to put Richard Armitage on the ballot. It’s simply the first step in the process – there are well over 100 names on this initial ballot. Names are listed in alphabetical order. Members of Academy ( or some screening committee, first) will choose from among all the names until the field gets whittled down to around between 5 and 10 names. Those actors will be in the field for winners.

I think I forgot to mention how lovely Richard is, and I was so lucky to work with him. Really spoiled with the whole cast on this show. Even if he had to start growing a beard on the last episode for his next gig. Small pieces dont like stubble that is to short to glue down. #richardarmitage #thereddragon #hannibal #hannibalseason3 #prosthetics #siliconeappliances PLEASE GIVE CREDIT WHEN YOU STEAL PICTURES. This is a makeup application for people who are into MUFX to see. Tagging me is not enough for something I feel is my art. #firstrealinstagramexperance

My Emmy Dream Come True?

Thanks to Servetus on Me and Richard for posting a link to this article suggesting that Richard Armitage should receive an Emmy nomination for his guest role in Hannibal. Here

I don’t know who Gold Derby’s Daniel Montgomery is, who how successful a track record he has for predicting nominations,  but it is true, endorphins soared while I read this article and I feel rewarded for my good works today, volunteering for a spay/neutering program and helping  64 dogs and cats get through recovery after surgery today.

I’m probably a little more optimistic than Servetus that an Emmy nom may come, just because it’s so deserving and I still want to believe that talent will win out over other factors.

These were a few of the highlights for me:

[Armitage/Dolarhyde] speaks and moves as if apologizing for the space he occupies. Then he meets a film developer, Reba (“True Blood” alum Rutina Wesley)

More than perhaps any other villain in the show’s entire run, he channels a demonic rage that is downright otherworldly. Standing six-foot-two, Armitage has an imposing physical presence; with Reba he seems to cower in that height, but as the Dragon he towers with menace. To think, this is the same actor who played the diminutive dwarf Thorin for three years in the “Hobbit” films; seeing the two characters side by side, you’d never know it’s the same actor.

Pure joy to read, but there are some of us who will always be able to know it’s the same actor, because we know what he can do. This brings back to mind some interviews by Richard Armitage during Hobbit press tours, which makes one wonder about the irony of his being so good and versatile that casting directors can’t believe it either.

 

@RCArmitage Congrats His Mates

And same to you – Congrats

Odd, But Welcome Choice for Armitage Photo

Am I wrong, or isn’t this a shot of Richard Armitage as Lucas North as Finance Guy Pete, from MI5 Episode 7.5?

And by the way – how terrific is it that Richard Armitage was nominated for Best Supporting Actor, and not Best Guest Actor. So deserving. So Right.
