‘A Gentleman in Moscow’s’ 20 Emmy Submissions: Ewan McGregor, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Sam Miller’s Directing Episode and More

As Paramount’s British series “A Gentleman in Moscow” hopes to break into the highly competitive limited series races, the show has submitted for 20 Primetime Emmys, including lead actor for star Ewan McGregor and supporting actress for Mary Elizabeth Winstead.

The eight-episode series follows an aristocrat, Count Alexander Ilyich Rostov, who spends decades banished to an attic hotel room following the October Revolution after being sentenced to house arrest by a Bolshevik tribunal. based on the 2016 novel by Amor Towles, the series was written by Ben Vanstone, who also serves as the executive producer and showrunner, and whose pilot episode titled “A Master of Circumstance” is submitted for consideration. The same episode will represent Sam Miller in the directing race, who has previously landed three Emmy bids: one for “Luther” in 2012 and two “I May Destroy You” in 2021.

The series received solid reviews from critics and boasted an impressive 91% on Rotten Tomatoes. PvNew‘s chief TV critic Alison Herman praised McGregor’s “charming” performance as the scene-stealing count.

McGregor has garnered five Emmy nominations throughout his career across multiple categories. Along with his lead actor (limited) win in 2021 for “Halston,” he’s been nominated in the same category for the anthology “Fargo” in 2017, in addition to guest drama actor for “ER,” narrator for “Highlands: Scotland’s Wild Heart” and as an executive producer last year for “Obi-Wan Kenobi.”

Speaking to PvNew about his prolific career in Hollywood, McGregor said, “I love making movies. I always dreamed of being a movie star. Then I was in movies. Every time I would sit there at the premiere, I couldn’t believe I was up there [on screen]. I still have that, I guess, but I don’t know what it means exactly.”

Winstead, who’s married to McGregor, also spoke candidly regarding the long search for a project for them to work on together after FX’s anthology crime series “Fargo” in 2018, saying, “I really didn’t expect it to be as great of a role as it ended up being. I just felt so lucky.”

While the limited series races are overflowing with multiple contenders, the drama could make a strong showing for its artisans, particularly production design, costumes and sound.

The full list of submissions for “A Gentleman in Moscow” is below.
