Sunday night’s Emmys included big wins for Transparent. Jill Soloway won for comedy directing, Jeffrey Tambor won for lead comedy actor and Bradley Whitford won for guest spot for his role on the show at the Creative Arts Emmys. I might be willing to bet that Oscar winner Anjelica Huston will be nominated next year for a guest spot Emmy herself. Soloway told Variety at a pre-Emmy party that Huston will be playing a “new friend” to Tambor’s character Maura in three episodes of Amazon’s ambitious series. Soloway said about Huston and Tambor’s characters’ on-screen vibe;
“They have a lot of chemistry… palpable chemistry! It was palpable. I was directing them together and watching through the monitor.”
Anjelica’s last TV role was playing Eileen Rand on NBC‘s musical series Smash and she also had a small voice role as a Hollywood executive in the first season of Netflix’s animated series Bojack Horseman. Houston joins Hari Nef, the actress and IMG’s recently signed transgender model, and photographer Petra Collins on this new season. Cannot wait. (Photo, Smash; via Out)
