The four-part series received critical acclaim when it hit the streaming service in March, and centres on a 13-year-old boy accused of murdering a schoolgirl. In the show, viewers saw how teen Jamie Miller's perception of girls had been radicalised through content he was viewing online, and also showed the vast amount of social media consumed by teenagers at school.

'If that was to be the case, it's definitely a massive achievement and it's the next step in my life,' he said. 'I'll just take it and move on. 'It's one of them things that will forever be there and I'll never forget it for the rest of my life.' And he deflected the praise back to the team who surrounded him on the show. 'It's all rooted from Stephen [Graham], Hannah [Walters, the producer], Phil [Barantini, the director], Jo Johnson the producer, it's all from them. I couldn't have done it without them,' he said. Stephen, who was also on the video interview, beamed as Cooper spoke. He said: 'The thing I'm proudest of [from making the show] is the fact we've created this opportunity for that wonderful young man to have a proper career within this industry. That makes me so proud.' He said Owen had 'pure talent', and added: 'Talent is one thing but you have to harness it and turn it into action and that's exactly what he did. 'His talent is, and I've said this before, personally I think it's a generational talent that he has. Also, and this can't be overlooked, he's a very intelligent young man. Bright as a button.

Because he's not affected in any way, he'll just be completely natural and in the flow.' Stephen added: 'His ability is second-to-none, because he's a million miles away from Jamie. Owen himself, the top lad, is a million miles away from Jamie. He completely transforms.' The Emmy nominations will be announced in July with the ceremony taking place in LA in September.

Adolescence fans can't believe how much Owen Cooper has shot up in just two months since the show launched as young actor towers over Stephen Graham at Hollywood Emmys event
Fans were left stunned after spotting Owen Cooper's drastic growth spurt in the two months since Adolescence hit our television screens. The cast of the hit Netflix production jetted off to Los Angeles earlier this week for a screening of the show as they step up their preparation for the Emmys. At the age of just 15, Owen is favourite for the Best Supporting Actor award for his incredible performance as troubled teenager Jamie Miller. If successful, the sensation would be the youngest ever male winner in the 76-year-old history of the 'TV Oscars '. But after Owen flew to California, eagle-eyed fans of the series were shocked to see how much he's grown in just a matter of months. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The 15-year-old now towers over the show's writer and onscreen dad Stephen Graham despite being noticeably smaller than his co-star at a premiere in London in March. Looking dapper in a pair of black suit trousers and a navy and black jacket, Owen posed for photos alongside the 51-year-old, who is five-foot-five, at Wednesday's event. The young star, who looked considerably older with a longer haircut, is also well and truly gaining on Ashley Walters, 42, who stands at five-foot-nine. The three men of the moment seemed pleased to be stepping out together as they stopped for photos alongside fellow co-star Erin Doherty, who looked effortlessly stylish for the appearance in a shirt suit and a co-ordinated tie. Cooper had flown to Los Angeles having watched his beloved Liverpool lift the Premier League trophy at Anfield on Sunday. The Adolescence star, who is still in school, jetted off after the beginning of the English half-term. Having originally been touted for the Best Actor award, Owen is now to be nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the Emmys. Experts hailed the 'genius move' not to enter the Warrington-born star into the Best Actor category as it significantly boosts his chances of winning. Despite experts calling Owen a 'lock-in' for the award, the modest teenager appeared to be taking the adulation in his stride, saying he would 'just take it and move on' if he bagged the gong. The Brit's main competition in his category is Javier Bardem, who starred in Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story and was initially the bookies' favourite. Speaking to Gold Derby last month about the prospect of gaining recognition with awards, Owen said: 'If that was to be the case, it's definitely a massive achievement and it's the next step in my life. I'll just take it and move on. 'It's one of them things that will forever be there and I'll never forget it for the rest of my life.' And he deflected the praise back to the team who surrounded him on the show. 'It's all rooted from Stephen [Graham], Hannah [Walters, the producer], Phil [Barantini, the director], Jo Johnson the producer, it's all from them. I couldn't have done it without them,' he said. Cooper, who hails from a proudly working class estate in central Warrington, was chosen from 500 candidates for the role of Jamie. It was his first-ever acting job and no one in his family has a background in the industry. He is being supported on his meteoric rise by dad Andy, an IT worker, and mum Noreen, a carer. Speaking about the change in their lives, Noreen said: 'It's such a shock, but we're getting on with it.' Brand and culture expert Nick Ede predicted Owen could follow in Timothée Chalamet's footsteps and become 'the toast of Hollywood'. He told MailOnline: 'The phenomenal success of Adolescence has taken the TV world by storm and critics have been raving about Owen's stand-out performance. 'The Hollywood elite love a rags-to-riches story and, at 15 and his first ever role, this young actor who was brought up in humble surroundings could soon become Hollywood's hottest property and follow the path of many other child stars who have become household names, like Millie Bobby Brown or Timothee Chalamet. 'I'm sure writers will already be presenting his agents with scripts and synopsis that will feature him. 'As he's so young I am sure he will be looked after and not thrust into the limelight without any support. 'Being a star in the UK is very different from being an international phenomenon. I am sure the offers will be rolling in from feature films to brand deals and beyond. 'He will probably feel a lot of pressure, but also feel a massive sense of achievement from where he has come from to where he is now.' The Emmy award ceremony is expected to take place in LA in September.

There's even talk of it being the end of the road for the iconic series, which has been suffering from tumbling ratings. Speculation has also been growing as to who - if anyone - might take over one of the biggest roles in British television. Here are the 11 favourites, according to the experts at 1 . Erin Doherty - 11/10 'Adolescence' star Erin Doherty is now favourite to become the next Doctor Who - and the second woman to take on the role. She played the young Princess Anne in the third and fourth seasons of Netflix drama 'The Crown'. | Getty Images Photo Sales 2 . Matt Smith - 5/4 Another star of 'The Crown' - Matt Smith played Prince Phillip in the royal drama - is the 5/4 second favourite.

Aimee Lou Wood - 11/8 Currently hot property thanks to her standout performance in season three of 'The White Lotus', Aimee Lou Wood completes the top three actors most likely to take on the part of the Timelord. She originally shot to fame in comedy series 'Sex Education', for which she won the Bafta for Best Actress. | Getty Images Photo Sales 4 .

The bookies reckon there's a chance - with odds of 6/4. | AFP via Getty Images Photo Sales
