Cooper triumphed over nominees including Billy Crudup, Walton Goggins, Jason Isaacs, Tramell Tillman, and his own Adolescence co-star Ashley Walters. The series itself drew further recognition, earning nominations for Stephen Graham and Erin Doherty, along with a nod for Best Television Limited Series. Adolescence explores a family in crisis after a teenage boy is accused of murder, addressing themes like toxic masculinity and the influence of social media on youth. Meanwhile, Billy Crudup’s nomination continued his streak for The Morning Show, where he plays UBA executive Cory Ellison, a role that has earned him multiple Golden Globe nominations in recent years.
