Other stars nominated Monday against White includedBarry’sBill Hader,ShrinkingstarJason Segel,Ted Lasso’sJason SudeikisandOnly Murders in the Building’sMartin Short.
In HBO’s dark comedy, Hader plays the titular hitman who enrolled in the comedy class of a washed-up acting teacher (Henry Winkler). The series finale ended with Winkler’s Gene Cousineau killing Barry.“I remember saying it’d be really interesting if Cousineau killed Barry with that gun,” Hader, 45, toldTheWrapof a thought he first had for season 2. “And then that was kind of it. I made a mental note of it, so from that point on there are a lot of specific close-ups of it, always tracking where that gun is knowing that it eventually killed Barry.”
The actor has shared how herelated to Barry’s mental health struggles. “When I was onSaturday Night LiveI would get panic attacks pretty frequently,” Hader toldPEOPLE in 10. “You know Barry has a panic attack and you go, ‘I know exactly what that feels like.'”
Hader has earned a total of 29 Emmy nominations over the years, andBarryreceived a 11 this year alone, including recognition for the show in the outstanding comedy series category, as well as nods for supporting actors Winkler, 78, andAnthony Carrigan, 41.
“I had a big existential crisis whenHow I Met Your Motherended, about my relationship to work because at some point I was like, really winning work,” he toldVanity Fair. “I had this little period where I could do anything I wanted. And I was very unhappy, and I couldn’t figure out why. So whenHow I Met Your Motherended, I spent a long time, like five years, trying to figure out my relationship to work in a way that would be sustainable for me and interesting for me.”
Sudeikis said onTodaylast March thatbeing a dadhimself to son Otis, 9, and daughter Daisy, 7, helped shape his character.
“It does help, yeah,” he said. “I’m not learning about parenting on Wikipedia. You know, be like, ‘OK, how’s empathy change your life, change your DNA?’ It’s method. I went full method. My training.”
“I only did the Boy Scouts for a little bit, but I always loved that notion of: leave the campsite better than you found it,” Sudeikis toldThe GuardianofTed Lasso’s future. “So if Ted Lasso is the AmericanMary Poppins, he wants to leave the Banks kids, and probably most importantly Mr. Banks, with the appreciation of flying a kite. And what I would wish for anyone involved with the show is: don’t cry that it’s over, but smile that it happened.”
This marks Sudeikis’s ninth Emmy nomination.Ted Lassoreceived a total of 21 Emmy nominations this year, including nods for the show in the outstanding comedy series, as well as recognition for supporting starsPhil Dunster,Brett Goldstein,Juno TempleandHannah Waddingham.
