Steven Yeun wins outstanding lead actor in a limited or anthology series or movie
Steven Yeun won the Emmy for outstanding lead actor in a limited or anthology series or movie for "Beef."
"Thank you for this immense honor and blessing," Yeun said before thanking his fellow "Beef" co-stars and the show's creators.
He also thanked Andrew Cooper, the series' onset photographer. "There were days when it was difficult to live in Danny's skin," he said. "Sometimes I wanted to judge him, sometimes I wanted to make fun of him, and [Cooper] pulled me aside and he's like, 'Never bail on Danny.' And thanks. I wanna say thank you to Danny for teaching me that judgment and shame is a lonely place, but compassion and grace is where we can all meet."
Yeun also thanked his wife and his family and told them he loves them.
Other nominees in the category included Taron Egerton for "Black Bird," Kumail Nanjiani for "Welcome to Chippendales," Evan Peters for "Dahmer - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story," Daniel Radcliffe for "Weird: The Al Yankovic Story" and Michael Shannon for "George & Tammy."
