2023 Emmy Predictions:

Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series or TV Movie

Weekly Commentary (Updated June 21, 2023): Ninety-six submissions are up in this category (compared to 92 in 2022). That will provide six nominees to be named on July 12.

Coming off her double Tony nomination and a Screen Actors Guild Award win for "George and Tammy," Jessica Chastain seems to be in the front-runner position for her stunning turn as the famed singer Tammy Wynette. The Oscar winner of "The Eyes of Tammy Faye" (2021) also keeps the buzz alive for her co-star Michael Shannon and the prospects for her Showtime series popping up in the limited series races.

She'll face Elizabeth Olsen's work as the murderous Candy Montgomery in HBO's "Love & Death," which could garner additional mentions for co-stars Jesse Plemons and Lily Rabe (and possibly directing and limited series)

The rest of the potential field could be filled with actresses from shows for which they are the sole nomination for, particularly Emily Blunt ("The English") and Rachel Weisz ("Dead Ringers"), who are both from Prime Video shows.

Another Amazon show, Riley Keough leads the charge for "Daisy Jones & the Six" which is a beloved show and a purity selection for industry and TV members. However, she may not have the same "prestige" that some of her counterparts have walking through the door, despite how fantastic the performance is. as some of her competitors. You can apply that same logic to Dominique Fishback from "Swarm."

Stand-up comedian Ali Wong surprises us with her fierce portrayal in Netflix's "Beef." But will the show be an across-the-board contender or is there a potential miss within the realm of the dark series? With members only getting six choices, that leaves the door open for snubs and surprises.

There's also the late push for "A S, mall Light," which could bring in Bel Powley or the star power of Kathryn Hahn from "Tiny Beautiful Things" that could sneak in.
