When it comes to Olivia Colman, the brilliant actor behind mammoth projects like The Crown and The Lost Daughter, it is quite easy to predict an Emmy award from just a first look. And that is exactly what has been happening around the internet today.
Great Expectations, based on the novel of the same name by Charles Dickens, just released a first look at Colman's character in the series, and that was enough to drive the fanbase crazy.
The eerie picture features Colman as Miss Havisham and was enough to kickstart an Emmy discussion even before the series premiered on Hulu. In fact, the series is quite far away, with a release date set for March 26, 2023.
However, that has not stopped viewers from predicting that the series will pave the way for Olivia Colman to win her fifth Emmy award.

This casting, along with an experienced crew, means that this series has a good chance of securing some big awards in the coming year.
