Irish duo Colin Farrell and Sharon Horgan secure Emmy nominations
Colin Farrell and Sharon Horgan are in the mix for some of the biggest awards in television, having secured nominations for this year's Primetime Emmy Awards.
The Irish duo received their nods for their roles in The Penguin and Bad Sisters, respectively.
Mr Farrell is seen as the likely winner in the category of Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for his titular role playing the infamous bête noire of superhero Batman.
The Dubliner, 49, has already won multiple awards for his portrayal of the Penguin but will have to fend off competition from the likes of Jake Gyllenhaal and Stephen Graham in his category.
Ms Horgan, meanwhile, is up for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her role as Eva Garvey in the second season of Bad Sisters.
