The Emmy Award nominations on Wednesday morning made history across various categories including Best Supporting Actress in a Limited Series which recognized Lily Gladstone and Kali Reis for their work in Hulu‘s Under The Bridge and Max‘s True Detective: Night Country, respectively.
The nods—both Gladstone and Reis’ first— make the pair the first Indigenous women to receive Emmy acting nominations.
Until today, August Schellenberg was the only Native American actor to be nominated for an acting Emmy. He was recognized for his portrayal of Sitting Bull in HBO’s Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee in 2007 under the “Outstanding Actor in a Miniseries or Move” category.
Additionally, FX’s Reservation Dogs finally earned some Emmy love for its final season including Best Comedy Series and Lead Actor in a Comedy for D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai.
Coming off a busy Oscar season where Gladstone was lauded for her work in Martin Scorcese’s Killers of the Flower Moon, she debuted as Cam Bentland in Hulu’s Under the Bridge alongside Archie Panjabi and Riley Keough. She also made history as the first Native actress of American descent to receive an Oscar nomination for Killers of the Flower Moon.
Reis, who is Afro-Indigenous, played Trooper Evangeline Navarro in Issa Lopez’s True Detective: Night Country opposite Jodie Foster and Fiona Shaw. The series earned a total of 19 Emmy nominations today including “Best Limited or Anthology Series,” “Best Lead Actress” for Jodie Foster and “Best Supporting Actor” for John Hawkes.
