From the Golden Globes to the upcoming Oscars, award season is soon reaching its peak. One notable aspect has been the blossoming friendship between two of our faves: Pedro Pascal and Kieran Culkin, colleagues on HBO and friendly rivals.
The Guardian details a profile for each actor.
Kieran
- Culkin has dominated the 2024 awards season, securing an Emmy, a Critics’ Choice award, and a Golden Globe.
- Roman Roy evolved into a fan favourite throughout "Succession," with Culkin's portrayal showcasing depth and dysfunction beneath his character's surface.
- This led to his promotion from supporting to lead actor categories in awards nominations, earning him three individual trophies and shared accolades for the ensemble cast of "Succession."
Pedro
- Pedro's portrayal of strikingly different characters (Oberyn Martell, Joel Miller) showcases his versatility as an actor.
- Kieran received acclaim for his role in "Succession," but Pedro's performance in "The Last of Us" is a pinnacle of television excellence.
- Questions still come up regarding Kieran's classification as a lead actor, particularly in comparison to Pedro's commanding lead performance as Joel.
- Kieran's contribution to "Succession" is acknowledged within the context of the ensemble cast, while Pascal's portrayal stands out as a driving force behind the narrative in "The Last of Us."
