Charles Asks Permission to Marry Camilla | The Crown (Dominic West, Imelda Staunton)
The Crown's swan song season earned Dominic West, who played then-Prince Charles, his first Emmy nomination, while Imelda Staunton is one of five other Crown stars to receive a nomination.
Netflix’s smash royal saga is nominated in 19 categories, including Outstanding Drama Series, where it will compete against Fallout, The Gilded Age, The Morning Show, Mr & Mrs. Smith, Shōgun, Slow Horses and 3 Body Problem. West and Staunton are nominated alongside Elizabeth Debicki, Lesley Manville and Jonathan Pryce. Claire Foy, meanwhile, is nominated for Outstanding Guest Actress for her return as the ghost of a younger Queen Elizabeth II. Foy played the queen in the show’s first two seasons.
West has starred in The Wire and The Affair, among others, but has never been nominated for an Emmy until now.
