Matthew Rhys made history by becoming the first actor to win two lead acting Emmys in the same year at the 78th annual Emmy Awards ceremony. Starting his career with small roles in British television like "Backup" and gaining fame for his role in "Brothers & Sisters," Rhys furthered his success starring in the period drama "The Americans." In his acceptance speech, he thanked his family and expressed gratitude to Wales for its nurturing influence. Post-ceremony, Rhys hinted at celebratory plans as he prepares for upcoming roles in shows like "Silent River" and "Presumed Innocent."

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.
