Lead Actress In A Limited Or Anthology Series Or Movie: 76th Emmy Awards

[@sukitong1108]

I was rooting for Jodie Foster. She did such a good performance for her role in True Detective Night Country

[@siddharthnaagar7028]

No one plays a detective better than Jodie Foster. Imagine winning an Oscar & Emmy both for playing an iconic detective in an iconic movie & TV show, respectively.

[@axr7149]

It is indeed possible. In fact, there are about 9 people who have won the Tony and the Oscar for the exact same role (Viola Davis in FENCES, Jack Albertson in THE SUBJECT WAS ROSES and many more). Jodie joins a somewhat similar group albeit for wildly different characters. Cynthia Erivo went one step further by winning a Grammy, an Emmy, and a Tony all for the same role (her stage role in THE COLOR PURPLE musical helped her win all 3).

[@jennifercramer6756]

Yeah, I kinda lost my sh*t when I found out she was going to be "detecting" again! And she was brilliant...again.

[@axr7149]

Here is a fun fact: Jodie Foster is one of only 4 people to win 2 Oscars in ANY category before age 30. The other 3 are Luise Rainer (2 consecutive Best Actress Oscars by age 28 in the late 1930s) and the brother-sister duo Billie Eilish and Finneas O'Connell (they won Best Song twice). Finneas is the only ever male to achieve this feat.

[@fey0217]

can't believe this is her FIRST emmy win. congrats to jodie. she's halfway to an egot!

[@lukasky03]

She doesn't need a Grammy or a Tony. She's already a legend.

[@davidsinnott7160]

She rarely does television, so it’s not surprising she hasn’t won an Emmy until now.

[@tn_onyoutube8436]

This is literally her first major TV role - so not in fact surprising at all! Hard to win if you’re not in anything.

[@shougokawada8491]

Not surprising at all. You must have forgotten that before Game of Thrones TV was considered an inherently inferior medium compared to films and therefore people who were successful movie actors never bothered to do any television because there was no point in it. Only now, when the prestige of television has increased immensely, movie stars have started to appear on TV as well.

[@plankface]

@@shougokawada8491tv didn’t used to green light a lot of topics movies did, so there was that too.

[@siddharthnaagar7028]

58 years into her legendary career and still reaping awards & giving bravura performances. That's why jodie will always be a GOAT. She takes years between the projects, but when she returns its a masterstroke.

[@sitori2509]

Juno Temple got robbed. They aren't voting for the best but rather the name, body of work, nostalgia. Jody was good. The show was ok. But Fargo and Juno Temple were brilliant.

[@edithlazenby5839]

BRILLIANT AND HUMBLE! CONGRATULATIONS!🎉❤

[@800Ms-k6n]

For an actress her calibre, it's kinda hard to believe that this is Jodie's first ever Emmy win. But hey, better late than never I guess 😊

[@davidsinnott7160]

This is her first regular television role outside of a few guest spots in the 60s and 70s, so it’s not all that surprising she hasn’t won before now. She was nominated previously as a director and a producer.

[@tn_onyoutube8436]

Kinda hard to win if you’ve never been in a TV show of this sort of calibre before. She’s a movie star, and has done almost no TV before this role.

[@shougokawada8491]

Not hard at all. You must have forgotten that before Game of Thrones TV was considered an inherently inferior medium compared to films and therefore people who were successful movie actors never bothered to do any television because there was no point in it. Only now, when the prestige of television has increased immensely, movie stars have started to appear on TV as well.

[@mewsao]

she's a big movie star duh she hardly did tv shows

[@gauravw6947]

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@shougokawada8491 GOT didn’t increase the prestige of television medium… There have been much better shows before and after GOT which have raised the bar for television and also movie stars have been doing television shows even before GOT…

[@jackee1054]

Every time this woman speaks, I am absolutely enthralled. She's brilliant and kind and talented and sincere. Love Jodi.

[@FelixBomer-ox5br]

Love is older than place and time. Quote of the decade

[@siddharthnaagar7028]

Jodie Foster is an actor of exceptional talent, depth and beauty who was always ahead of her peers, by the time actors of her age were in their diapers she was making commercials, by the time they learned to speak, she was making movies for Disney, by the time they starting going to the school, she was winning awards and getting nominated for the Oscars, by the time they decided to enter films, Jodie decided to leave it behind and enjoy the ivy league world which she graduated with magna cum laude, by the time her peers had their breakthrough she already had won two Oscars and transitioned to the director's chair. An extraordinary talent, who's contribution to cinema is unparalleled and exquisite. A sheer gift to the world of acting and filmmaking.

[@kathykb8123]

So well said.

[@MikeInMD1961]

She just makes you forget you're watching an "actor". So naturally gifted it's incredible. Love her!!!

[@marcsalvaggio6244]

I had the absolute pleasure of working with her while she was directing in Winnipeg of all places. Amazing positive energy, multi talented, one of a kind ❤

[@ct6852]

Always happy when she gets recognized. She's been great for so long.

[@EddieLensweiger]

Wow Congrats Jodie, She Just made a history! She won Oscar for playing Law Enforcer in Silence of the lambs and now Emmy for the same character 👏👏👏

[@daydreamer7618]

Two _very_ different characters.

[@SamSchuring]

A big congrats to Jodie Foster for this win.

[@adolfopena7358]

Lily and Greta are gorgeous.

[@13thvoz]

Isnt it nice to see different kinds of beauty? I was thinking of how differently gorgeous they are

[@TabethaAurochs]

​@@13thvoz It is so so so wonderful to see. And then there's Jodie Foster, who's another very real kind of beautiful as well 💜 I cannot take my eyes off Lily Gladstone whenever she's on screen... Her whole-everything-she's just mesmerizing to me. And she makes cool fashion choices.

[@13thvoz]

@@TabethaAurochs can't agree more. I still remember when you only saw straight white people on TV/award shows. It's nice to see the change of speed.

[@siddharthnaagar7028]

It's amazing how Jodie Foster has crafted a legacy where it's only her work that matters and not her personal life (though people have been prying on her sexuality for years, before she finally acknowledged it publicly). For someone who has been working in the film business since age 3 and has been a global movie star ever since her breakthrough year of 1976 at age 13, it's remarkable how well she transitioned to mature leading roles with her sanity & integrity intact. Not to mention between all the mayhem of stardom, she managed to graduate a rigorous french language prep school as a valedictorian, had a near perfect SAT score, graduated from Yale magna cum laude in comparative literature. Jodie Foster in every sense is exceptional & remarkable, someone who would be a better suit from a career in academics but somehow ended up being in the showbiz, since she had no choice & this remarkable intellect of her's is what distinguishes her from all of her peers or literally everybody in the film industry. A once in a generation talent.

[@giovannibrunocolleoni9075]

every one standing up to her because know she’s one of the most talented actress alive

[@siddharthnaagar7028]

It's amazing how Jodie Foster was winning awards in her 20s, and she is winning awards in her 60s. Talk about longevity.

[@DavidGarcia-tl9im]

It’s because she is a great DETECTIVE! She totally deserves the Emmy.

[@sitori2509]

No way. Juno Temple got robbed. Jodie was good but there was truly no comparison.

[@sitori2509]

Juno Temple deserved it by far. Jodie was good. Juno was incredible. Better show - better writing than TD, too.

[@justmejenny7986]

Excellent mini series. And she was phenomenal.

[@victorcaetano4709]

Sofia Vergara mouthing "i knew it" @1:41 😂

[@Wildflowers171]

Sour looser

[@sitori2509]

Yes - the award went to nostalgia, body of work, not for who truly gave the best performance. That would have been Juno Temple then Sophia Vergara, IMO.

[@manantial773]

​@@sitori2509"I knew it" might mean that she knew Jodie is the best. I think that Juno Temple deserved it the most, but Foster's win is also a good one. Vergara was fifth for me.

[@casseyhans5650]

of course because she has no talent. Her ''nomination" is a scam.

[@ddanusya]

Sofia was really good she deserved her nominations

[@MissYalda]

Just finished True Detective: Night Country (out of all the seasons it was my favorite hands down!) and it was unbelievable well done! I am so happy that she finally got the recognition she deserves! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 The whole cast was awesome!👌🏼

[@RealLoveHandles]

We’ll deserved. And love the shout out to the Indigenous community ❤

[@sitori2509]

Juno Temple got robbed

[@mmattingly6]

I am constantly in awe of Jodie Foster. She just exudes intelligence and integrity!

[@JORIS1234HOTMAIL]

Same feeling here. She is amazing. Grtz from Antwerp. I loved Silence …, Contact, …

[@ThomasRojas-rk6du]

One of my favorite actresses of all time glad to see her win again!

[@alexr137]

She's such a gorgeous person inside and out and this award is so well deserved!

[@theresavalore7158]

Almost 60 years in this business well deserved great actress intelligent great speech love you

[@chrisp1355]

Jodie is well loved. The award is well deserved.

[@trediaz4012]

A true LEGEND

[@oscarstory]

Such a strong category

[@firefly9x9]

Congrats Jodie 👏👏👏

[@rbdg3794]

i have always loved jodie foster. silence of the lambs. one of my favorites. she is an awesome actress. so glad for her win

[@youtubeprofile7317]

I love her so much!

[@kennet689]

Love her. She looked amazing. What an amazing comeback .. after semi retirement

[@MarCapa-ed5uv]

“La Reina” 😄 Loved the way she said it ❣️

[@fc4660]

Jodie is so intelligent and thoughtful

[@afterpeluche8200]

El amor hizo tan feliz a esta mujer. Una talentosa de toda la vida, pero asì, con este brillo, no la vimos nunca. Al fin llegò, Jodie! Congrats!

[@kellyharrison5184]

She was amazing in that role. So glad she won.

[@davidao2551]

Plus 50 years into her career, it's unbelievable that this is her first Emmy

[@SamaraLaFemme]

Jodie Foster i love you since my childhood - you are gergous ❤

[@Neil_555]

Well deserved. Everyone in this category is a winner though. Wonderful women.

[@dissectingculture95]

So happy Jodie won!! She so deserved it!

[@hpfme]

Truly what an amazing actress!

[@ginaposa4506]

Long overdue about time wonderfull Jodie foster❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@CeliniacForLife]

Now, Jodie only needs to win a Tony (I'm thinking Best Actress in a Play) to complete her Triple Crown of Acting.

[@daydreamer7618]

Sadly that won't ever happen because she refuses to do plays. And we have John Hinckley and some other dude with a gun to thank for that. Go google it, it's too long of a story to write on a KZbin comment.

[@LeafinPaper]

Marcia Gay Harden could have done it this year since she was nominated for emmy for guest actress at the creative emmys had she won. She aleeady has a tony and an oscar.

[@lunchien9516]

Congratulations Jodie Foster💗🏆～👍👏🎊

[@marialewis6432]

YES!!! ❤ So well-deserved!! She OWNED that role and the only reason I watched...

[@eddieg6436]

Yes!! Jodie deserves it all!!! 🥂😎👌

[@sitori2509]

Juno Temple got robbed

[@ReezASam]

I always enjoy her speech. You can sense her high intelligence!

[@adolfopena7358]

Happy to see Brie Larson there.

[@jokewilmasluis6374]

Beautiful 💜💜

[@siddharthnaagar7028]

This woman is the very definition of exceptional. She has a different legacy, which no other gr8 actor in Hollywood has. Jodie's remarkable intellect (unlikely for an actor to have) is one of the reasons, why I'm so fascinated by her.

[@eduardomerino8098]

Congratulations Jodie. I was rooting for Sofia Vergara but Jodie did great too.

[@siddharthnaagar7028]

Some imbeciles here saying she won bcoz she's jodie foster, need to watch true detective night country. It's another intelligent, searing & not to mention iconic performance from this legend.

[@waltgodsoe9111]

Bravo Jodie

[@marrmart7690]

Joide foster congrats❤🏆❤

lily gladstone is hot and beautiful 😮as hell

[@meganroconnell1]

This made me cry

[@mac_c]

She is just wonderful, and always was. She just needs to win a Tony (she can do it) and then she'll achieve the Triple Crown of Acting.

[@zcvxs]

I know it's her 1st but I still wanted to see Sofia to win. She is soo good. I swear the studio promise the nominees they will for sure win just to get them to show up

[@shookdrm.d.9389]

silence of the lamb is still the thing to her ....

[@LisaLee-y5r]

Jodi was Awesome in True Detective

[@jenniferokazaki38]

Jodie Foster is the Goddess of all actors. And, Brie Larson is too beautiful to not be a supermodel. 🏆🎭

[@tampico63]

True Detective's last scene before it goes black it's truly wonderful, so many possibilities, so many unaswered questions..fucking love this show. I've watched 6 times so far...

[@morganbyrd4157]

People keep saying "I can't believe this is her first Emmy win" like she's been snubbed but she doesn't work in TV. She directs and was nommed for Orange is the New Black but this is her first major TV role.

[@scarletharris7705]
