Star Directors, Star Subjects: Ron Howard’s Jim Henson Film, Fisher Stevens’ David Beckham Docuseries Win At Creative Arts Emmys


Ron Howard's Jim Henson documentary and Fisher Stevens' David Beckham docuseries won at the Creative Arts Emmys.

The director and stars of Eden — Jude Law, Daniel Brühl, Ana de Armas, Sydney Sweeney, and Vanessa Kirby – stopped by Deadline’s Toronto Studio before heading to their premiere at Roy Thomson Hall. The Guardian, reviewing Beckham, heaped praise on the four-part Netflix series, writing, “This absolutely star-packed docuseries is a fun, gossipy watch full of blunt, entertaining interviews. In our review for Deadline, we wrote, “In this deft and touching portrayal, Howard expands our appreciation for Henson’s brilliance beyond ‘just’ the Muppets – though creating that menagerie of memorable characters out of felt, foam, ping pong balls, and other materials would have been more than enough to secure his artistic legacy.”
