'Game of Thrones,' 'Veep' expected to make the shortlist for 2019 Emmy nominations:
A handful of hopefuls in Hollywood will get one of the most anticipated calls of the year tomorrow morning: that they've been nominated for an Emmy.
"Veep" star Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who recently battled breast cancer, is as close to a sure thing as you can get to for a nomination in the outstanding lead actress comedy category, and she may even pull out a record seventh Emmy win. Similarly, previous"Veep" winner Tony Hale seems a likely bet in the supporting actor category, although last year's winner, Henry Winkler, could repeat for"Barry.
As for the drama categories, things could be harder to predict. Previous winners"The Handmaid's Tale" and"The Crown" aren't eligible this year, while"House of Cards," which ended last November, could be ignored, thanks to the ongoing controversy surrounding former star Kevin Spacey.
