"Succession" Cast Dominates Emmy Contention with Sarah Snook as Lead Actress Contender

Sarah Snook, who plays Siobhan "Shiv" Roy on HBO's "Succession," will be submitted for the lead drama actress category for this year's Primetime Emmys, changing from her supporting bids for the three previous seasons. Snook has shined dramatically in the show's fourth and final season, becoming the season's clear standout of the large, sprawling ensemble. With her two on-screen brothers confirmed for leading bids, Snook is likely to face other beloved actors such as "Yellowjackets" star Melanie Lynskey. "Succession" is considered the far and away front-runner for outstanding drama series.
