Olivia Colman as Queen Elizabeth Not Eligible for ‘The Crown’ in Emmy Guest Actress Race, Claire Foy Remains Early Favorite (EXCLUSIVE)


Olivia Colman is not eligible to submit her Queen Elizabeth performance to the Emmys for 'The Crown,' but Claire Foy is still in the race.

However, her co-star Claire Foy, who also portrays Her Royal Highness in her younger years and appears in the same episode, is eligible and will be the sole guest submission for the series, angling for her second win in the category. Recently, Bradley Cooper was submitted into the guest comedy actor category for playing himself on ABC’s mockumentary series “Abbott Elementary.” He appeared in one minute and 56 seconds of the 20-minute and 31-second episode, less than Colman’s overall screen time. Nonetheless, “The Crown” pushes forward as one of the top contenders in the drama series race, where it’ll face off against FX’s “Shōgun,” Prime Video’s “Fallout” and Netflix’s “3 Body Problem.” Many of this season’s stars, such as Dominic West, Jonathan Pryce and Elizabeth Debicki, are among the favorites in their respective categories.
