Disney Makes BIG Emmy Push For 'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier' - Inside the Magic

Disney and Marvel are really killing it when it comes to making new original series. WandaVision was the first series to bring the MCU to the small screen, and it was quickly a hit. Things only got better from there. Marvel’s newest series Loki, had the highest premiere audience in its opening week for any Disney+ show.

In the wake of the success of Marvel’s original series, Disney has decided to make a huge push for the Marvel series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. Disney has pushed for the series to be under award consideration in a staggering 18 categories — including Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan both being submitted for consideration in the Lead Actor In A Drama Series.

Disney also submitted a number of actors and actresses for Best Supporting Actor and Actress categories, including Emily VanCamp (Sharon Carter), Erin Kellyman (Karli Morgenthau), Wyatt Russell (John Walker/Captain America), and Daniel Brühl (Baron Zemo). Don Cheadle is also being considered in the Guest Actor in a Drama Series category for reprising his role as James Rhodes.

What makes these For Your Consideration categories interesting that The Falcon and the Winter Soldier is being considered for Outstanding Drama Series. Meanwhile, another Marvel success, WandaVision, is being considered for Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series. Hopefully, this is a secret confirmation that viewers will be treated to a second season of Sam and Bucky.

Emmy nominations will be voted on from June 17 to June 28 with the official list of nominees coming being released on July 13. The 2021 Primetime Emmy Awards will take place on September 19.
