Yahoo Finance Evan Peters Won Over The Internet For His Heartwarming Emmys Shout-Out To Kate Winslet
Everyone's talking about Kate Winslet.
Mare of Easttown's Evan Peters won his first Emmy and he couldn't get off the stage without giving Winslet a shout out.
Peters, who won Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie for his role as Detective Colin Zabel in the American crime drama, thanked his co-star Kate Winslet 'for being Kate Winslet'.
It wasn't the only praise for the British star that night – fellow Mare of Easttown actor Julianne Nicholson praised Winslet for getting her on board with the series, which picked up four awards.
For her best supporting actress win, Nicholson rounded off her speech by telling Winslet: 'If you hadn’t called and asked if I wanted to join you in Philly, I probably would have read the first two episodes, thought ‘Nah, the priest did it,’ and stayed home. So I owe this to you.'
She mentioned how Winslet, who plays the lead in the drama, got them through a tough shoot during the pandemic.
'You led all of us every step of the way with such care and intelligence and love.'
Easttown follows Winslet's character Mare as a small-town detective investigating the murder of a young girl.
Winslet also took home the award for Outstanding Lead Actress, saluting the women in the industry.
'I just want to acknowledge my fellow nominees in this decade that has to be about women having each other's backs. I support you. I salute you. I'm proud of all of you.'
From all of us, thank you Kate Winslet.
