There’s no right way to find out you’ve been nominated for an Emmy.<\/p>\n

While speaking with E! News’ Giuliana Rancic<\/a><\/strong> on the purple carpet ahead of the 71st Primetime Emmy Awards<\/a> at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, Sam Rockwell<\/a><\/strong>, nominated for his work in the FX limited series Fosse\/Verdon<\/em>, revealed just how he learned he’d received the nod for bringing legendary director and choreographer Bob Fosse<\/strong> to life when G asked the identiy of the first person he called to share the exciting news with.<\/p>\n

“I don’t know,” he admitted alongside wife Leslie Bibb<\/a><\/strong>. “I think I was at the gym or something.”<\/p>\n

Perhaps sensing her husband’s memory of the momentous morning was failing him, Leslie jumped in, “No, Pedro. Pedro Pascal<\/strong>. He called.”<\/p>\n

Referring to the Game of Thrones<\/em> and Narcos<\/em> actor, who’ll next be seen on Disney+’s forthcoming live-action Star Wars series The Mandalorian<\/em>, she continued, “Pedro was like, ‘You…’\u2014and he used an expletive\u2014’you got nominated. So I think Pedro actually might’ve called you and told you.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Seeming still a bit unsure, Sam agreed with his wife’s version of events. “Okay, alright. That might be it,” he said. “Maybe that was it.”<\/p>\n

When asked about how hard it was to bring a perfectionist like Fosse to life in the limited series, Sam quipped, “Extremely is the answer. Extremely.”<\/p>\n

To find out if the Oscar winner will be able to add an Emmy to his mantle, besting the likes of Mahershala Ali, Benicio del Toro, Hugh Grant, Jared Harris<\/strong> and Jharrel Jerome <\/strong>for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series or Movie, be sure to tune in when the festivities kick off tonight!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
