Our team is breaking down the top contenders in all the major Emmy races and highlighting some of our favorites. Today, we’re looking at Outstanding Lead Actor In A Limited Series
Ethan Hawke's performance as John Brown in "The Good Lord Bird" looks to win the star his first Emmy.

Heading into Emmy nominations for this particular category, we don’t have a single actor who has won a precursor. We’re in a race without a frontrunner! The past year of awards all went to Mark Ruffalo for I Know This Much Is True, who also won the Emmy. This makes the race all the more exciting.

They went with the latter last year, as Ruffalo was the only nominee for I Know This Much is True.
Read on to see who might be in contention this year...
