The comedy actress Emmy races are a blend of familiar faces like Allison Janney and Megan Mullally, and newcomers like Rachel Brosnahan and Betty Gilpin.
Who Should Win: Rachel Brosnahan, The Marvelous Mrs. MaiselBrosnahan’s breakout performance is one of those times where an actor’s talent is just undeniable.
Who Will Win: Rachel Brosnahan, The Marvelous Mrs. MaiselAmazon’s marketing department ran a very convincing campaign for why Rachel Brosnahan should win this Emmy, and without last year’s winner and Emmys record holder Julia Louis-Dreyfus eligible to vie for her seventh consecutive statue, Brosnahan is definitely the favorite to win.
And while two-time winner Kate McKinnon remains in the Supporting Comedy Actress race for her work on Saturday Night Live, with Veep out of the running this year the Lead Comedy Actress category is due for a major shakeup.
