Bradley Whitford and John Lithgow have nine Emmys between them, including one each in Best Drama Supporting Actor. They’re in the running in the category this year for “The Handmaid’s Tale” and “Perry Mason,” respectively, each with a chance to become the first person to win the award for two different shows.
Whitford took home his first Emmy in drama supporting actor for “The West Wing” in 2001 on his first of three straight bids. His other wins were for his guest roles on “Transparent” in 2015 and “The Handmaid’s Tale” in 2019, making him the first person to win the comedy and drama guest actor categories. Lithgow’s most recent victory was in drama supporting actor for “The Crown” in 2017. He has three comedy actor statuettes for “3rd Rock From the Sun” and two drama guest ones for “Amazing Stories” in 1986 and “Dexter” in 2010.
