If you take a peek at the predictions of Gold Derby’s Top 24 Users for Best Comedy Actress, you’ll see that Elle Fanning is thisclose to receiving an Emmy nomination for Hulu’s period dramedy “The Great.” This category has 86 ballot submissions, which means there will be six nominees (see how voting works), and Fanning comes in behind seven other leading ladies: Catherine O’Hara (“Schitt’s Creek”), Rachel Brosnahan (“The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”), Christina Applegate (“Dead to Me”), Linda Cardellini (“Dead to Me”), Pamela Adlon (“Better Things”), Issa Rae (“Insecure”) and Merritt Wever (“Run”). But I think we’re all underestimating Fanning’s Emmy chances. Below, see my Top 4 reasons why she’ll beat the odds and score a nomination on July 28.
