Harrison Ford Lands Emmy Nomination for "Shrinking"
Harrison Ford has landed his first ever Emmy nomination.
The Hollywood legend reached the new milestone Tuesday, earning his first-ever nomination on Tuesday for his role in the Apple TV+ comedy 'Shrinking," in the category of best supporting actor in a comedy series.
Ford will compete against Ike Barinholtz, Colman Domingo, Jeff Hiller, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Michael Urie, and Bowen Yang.
He had been tipped to receive a nomination last year for the show's debut season but he was bested by The Bear's Ebon Moss-Bachrach, who won, and Lionel Boyce, Hack's Paul W. Downs, Only Murders In The Building's Paul Rudd, Abbott Elementary's Tyler James Williams, and SNL's Bowen Yang.
Last year, the series scored an Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series nomination for Jason Segel and an Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for Jessica Williams.
The "Star Wars" star also received a Best Supporting Actor – Series, Miniseries or Television Film nomination at this year's Golden Globes and a nom for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Comedy Series at the Screen Actors Guild Awards but didn't win either.
Ford stars as Paul Rhoades, well-known and experienced psychotherapist and Jimmy's (Jason Segel) mentor at their workplace. A bit of a curmudgeon who draws comparisons to Batman and more, Paul has a bit of his ego and can come off arrogant at times, but he cares for his patients and for the people in his life that he loves. Paul also has Parkinson's disease.
"Shrinking" co-creators Bill Lawrence and Brett Goldstein, who moved from behind the camera to guest-starring in Season 2 as a very notable role, Louis Winston, both have a 'deep history' with the illness as both of their fathers have been diagnosed with it.
Lawrence also mentioned that his 'mentor' Michael J. Fox, influenced the portrayal of Parkinson's in the series.
Fox has been cast in Season 3 of the comedy series.
Apart from this arc for Paul Rhoades, he often finds himself placating Jimmy, who worries a lot about his patients and will bend over backwards to help them.
Paul is big on boundaries, and he calls his home his 'fortress of solitude.' He also did secret 'chats' with Jimmy's daughter Alice (Lukita Maxwell) in Season 1 that Jimmy eventually found out about. Of course, they were mini therapy sessions.
Ford hasn't made a great deal of television; he started his career with small roles on shows such as "Ironside," "The FBI," "Gunsmoke," and "Kung Fu" before moving on to movies. His first major role was in Paramount+'s "1923".
He was Oscar-nominated for his leading role in the 1996 film "Witness".

Here's Our First Look at "Stranger Things" Season 5
Yara Sameh Netflix has unveiled the teaser trailer for the fifth and final season of 'Stranger Things.' Created by the Duffer Brothers, 'Stranger Things 5' picks up in the aftermath of Vecna leaving Max in a coma and spreading the Upside Down into Hawkins. At the end of the explosive trailer, Vecna arrives to go to war against the gang. The official synopsis for 'Stranger Things 5' reads, 'Hawkins is scarred by the opening of the Rifts, and our heroes are united by a single goal: find and kill Vecna. But he has vanished — his whereabouts and plans unknown. Complicating their mission, the government has placed the town under military quarantine and intensified its hunt for Eleven, forcing her back into hiding. As the anniversary of Will's disappearance approaches, so does a heavy, familiar dread. The final battle is looming — and with it, a darkness more powerful and more deadly than anything they've faced before. To end this nightmare, they'll need everyone — the full party—standing together, one last time.' In May, Netflix revealed that the final season of the mega-hit show will be released in three parts: the first debuting on November 26, the second December 25 and the series finale December 31. Each volume releases at 5 pm PT. The main cast returning for Season 5 includes Winona Ryder as Joyce Byers, David Harbour as Jim Hopper, Millie Bobby Brown as Eleven, Finn Wolfhard as Mike Wheeler, Gaten Matarazzo as Dustin Henderson, Caleb McLaughlin as Lucas Sinclair, Noah Schnapp as Will Byers, Joe Keery as Steve Harrington, Sink as Max Mayfield, Natalia Dyer as Nancy Wheeler, Charlie Heaton as Jonathan Byers, Maya Hawke as Robin Buckley, Jamie Campbell Bower as Vecna and more. New cast members include Nell Fisher as Holly Wheeler, Jake Connelly as Derek Turnbrow and Alex Breaux as Lt. Akers. 'Terminator' star Linda Hamilton is also joining the cast in a mysterious role.

The Last of Us" Season 3 Release Window
Yara Sameh "The Last of Us" might be Emmy-nominated, but it'll take a while before the show graces HBO screens again. In a conversation with Variety , HBO CEO Casey Bloys dropped more information about "The Last of Us" future and how long it will take to adapt the rest of "The Last of Us Part II". "The series is definitely planned for 2027," Bloys said regarding season 3's release date, though he revealed showrunner Craig Mazin "is still working it out whether it will be two more seasons or one more long season. It hasn't been decided yet, and I'm following Craig's lead on that." Unlike the previous seasons, Mazin will be the sole showrunner going into season 3, with Neil Druckmann and writer Halley Gross -- who co-wrote Part II's story with Druckmann -- announcing they will step away from the show earlier this month. According to Bloys, this decision was a result of Druckmann having to prioritize his commitment as co-president of the game company Naughty Dog, stating, "A lot of people don't realize that Neil has a full time job creating video games and running Naughty Dog. It's a really big job that he's got. So I understand why he needs to focus on that. But I believe he's given us a good blueprint with the show. And obviously Craig is a pro, so I think we'll be in excellent shape. I'm not worried at all." Druckmann's next project is the upcoming sci-fi game "Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet," whose cast features "The Last of Us" Tati Gabrielle and Tony Dalton in lead and supporting roles. Compared to season 1's reception, "The Last of Us" season 2 earned more mixed-to-positive reviews, with notable criticism being directed at the later episodes' pacing and slight tweaks to how the story played out compared to its source material. Despite this, the series has been nominated for 16 awards at this year's Emmys, including Best Actor and Actress for Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey and multiple guest actor/actress nominations for its supporting cast. The show's nomination count was outdone by "Severance," "The Penguin," "The Studio," and "The White Lotus," with Apple TV+'s hit sci-fi thriller walking away with 27 nominations, "Penguin" getting 24, and "The Studio" and "The White Lotus" matching each other with 23. Keeping in line with Part II's big twist, "The Last of Us" ended with a dramatic confrontation between Ellie (Ramsey) and Joel's killer Abby (Kaitlyn Dever) before flashing back three days to revisit the season's back half from Abby's perspective. This will place the focus on not only Abby, but her WLF friends who assisted in tracking Joel down and their militia's leader Isaac, played again by game actor Jeffrey Wright. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Arts & Culture Hawass Foundation Launches 1st Course to Teach Ancient Egyptian Language Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream
