Netflix’s ‘Money Heist’ & ‘Ride Upon The Storm’s Lars Mikkelsen Score International Emmys
Netflix’s Money Heist and House of Cards star Lars Mikkelsen were among the winners at the International Emmys.
The 46th iteration of the event took place last night in New York and was hosted by comedian Hari Kondabolu.
Mikkelsen accepted the Emmy for Best Performance by an Actor for his role as priest Johannes in Ride Upon the Storm, while Netflix’s Spanish drama beat Amazon’s Indian cricket drama Inside Edge and Sky’s British pop culture plays Urban Myths to score Best Drama.
In addition to the awards, two special awards were presented by the International Academy; Fox Television Group Chairman and CEO Dana Walden presented the International Emmy Directorate Award to Sophie Turner Laing, Chief Executive Officer, Endemol Shine Group, and Blindspot star Sullivan Stapleton and producer Julie Plec presented the International Emmy Founders Award to writer, director and producer Greg Berlanti.
“For people who work in television across the globe, this is the best of times. Despite change and uncertainty around the world, programming thrives,” said International Academy President & CEO Bruce L. Paisner. “We congratulate the winners for helping to make television better and better.”
