The Emmy award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series goes to Bryan Cranston, for his role in “Breaking Bad.”
Cranston beat out Jeff Daniels, Jon Hamm, Woody Harrelson, Matthew McConaughey and Kevin Spacey in the category Monday night, Aug. 25. It is his fourth win.
“This is a horrible category,” Julia Roberts joked as she was presenting the award. When Cranston accepted the award he spoke of his love of acting and said, “I can only say that I have gratitude for everything that has happened.” His co-star Aaron Paul also walked away with an Emmy for his portrayal of Jesse Pinkman in “Breaking Bad,” which finished its series run this year. Cranston also thanked show creator Vince Gilligan and the cast. “My dear friend, Aaron Paul, I love you so much,” he said. “To Anna Gunn, my television wife extraordinaire, I love you, especially those scenes in bed.”
