Emmys: What You Didn’t See On TV; Tom Holland, Zendaya, Charlie Hunnam, Nicole Kidman & More

There were plenty of memorable moments on camera at Monday night’s 78th Emmy Awards, but much went on off-camera as well. Emmy history was made tonight by Matthew Rhys, who became the first actor to win across all three lead categories (Comedy, Drama & Limited Series/Movie) and is the first man to win two lead acting awards in the same year. And Jean Smart won her eighth career Emmy, tying Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Cloris Leachman for the most Emmys ever by a performer. Deadline was in the audience at tonight’s show, keeping an eye on all that was unfolding when the cameras were off. Here’s some of what we saw: Watch on Deadline ‘Avenger Alums Reunite Tom Holland did not walk the red (actually blue) carpet, but is with Zendaya at tonight’s show. During break after she lost for Lead Actress in the Drama Series to Rhea Seehorn, he and she were talking when fellow Avenger and Task nominee Mark Ruffalo came running over and bear hugged him and then Zendaya. Clearly biggest stars in the room right now. Who needs an Emmy? ‘Lost City Of Z’ Alums Catch Up Everyone Heads For The Food And there has been so much action at the concessions in loge the only food left at 7:15 is flamin hot Doritos and one lone box of M&Ms. Huge Applause For Matthew Rhys’ Historic Emmy Wins A big applause for double Emmy winner Matthew Rhys as he takes Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for ‘Widow’s Bay’ Earlier, he won Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series for Netflix's ‘The Beast in Me’#Emmys pic.twitter.com/B3u4hvVmpQ— Deadline (@DEADLINE) September 15, 2026 Zendaya, Tom Holland & Chase Infiniti Catching Up ‘Paradise’ Cast Poses For Group Photo Standing O For Jean Smart Congrats For Double Emmy Winner Matthew Rhys Nicole Kidman Has Front Row Seat Brett Goldstein & Richard Gadd Catch Up During Break Big ‘Widow’s Bay’ Winners Pose For Photo Elle & Dakota Fanning & Grace Gummer
