2023 Emmy Predictions:
Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or TV Movie

Weekly Commentary: Jessica Chastain could win a Tony Award for her performance in “A Doll’s House” (and/or as a producer in the best play revival category). This notoriety could give her a significant boost going into the first round of voting for her work in Showtime’s “George & Tammy.”

The Oscar winner of “The Eyes of Tammy Faye” still faces competition from notable names like Rachel Weisz (“Dead Ringers”), Emily Blunt (“The English”) and Kathryn Hahn (“Tiny Beautiful Things”)
