White had been on a winning streaking leading up to Saturday’s ceremony, receiving both an Emmy Award, a Critics' Choice Award and two Golden Globes. Although the FX series has allowed him the opportunity to add more accolades to his name, he has been putting in the work since hisShamelessdays.
He recently appeared in the critically lauded A24 drama filmThe Iron Claw, starring as pro wrestlerKerry Von ErichoppositeZac Efron’s leadingKevin Von Erich.
Besides White, the category was rather competitive this year, with Goldstein, Hader, Moss-Bachrach and Sudeikis also up for the prize.
The serieswrapped its third seasonin May 2023, thoughit’s still uncertain if it will be the show’s last hurrah.
Because of Goldstein’s associations with major projects ranging fromShrinkingto the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the comedian has grappled with balancing expectations of his public persona with being true to himself. “I think there was a brief period of time where I thought, ‘Oh, maybe I have to be more careful now.’ But then I’ve thought, ‘No.’ Otherwise, why am I doing this?” he toldGQlast year.

Months ahead of Saturday’s big event, Hader wrappedBarry’s fourth and final season in May 2023. Not only did the 45-year-old actor star as the titular Barry Berkman, but he also served as the show’s co-creator and as one of its executive producers.
Hader previously toldEntertainment Weeklythat he believed the way the series wrapped “makes sense for the characters.”
“That was a thing we talked about: It’s the last season, so let’s make sure we don’t play it safe,” he added. “Let’s still take big swings.”

For his work inThe Bear, Moss-Bachrach, 46, has earned an Emmy Award and aCritics' Choice Award. He’s also been nominated for a Golden Globe.
As he won his first Emmy last month, theGirlsalum saidhis job on the popular series “is such a gift.”
“It’s such a privilege to work with these wonderful actors,” he added. “We have the best crew. We have this incredible Chicago crew.”
In an interview withThe Guardianlast year, Sudeikis revealed that when developing the series, he shifted the direction of the once-“belligerent” Ted featured on NBC Sports amid rising political tension.
“It was the culture we were living in,” he explained. “I’m not terribly active online and it even affected me. Then you haveDonald Trumpcoming down the escalator. I was like, ‘OK, this is silly,’ and then what he unlocked in people … I hated how people weren’t listening to one another.”
“Things became very binary and I don’t think that’s the way the world works,” he continued. “And, as a new parent — [my now-exOlivia Wildeand I] hadour son Otisin 2014 — it was like, ‘Boy, I don’t want to add to this.’ Yeah, I just didn’t want to portray it.”
