THE QUADRUPLE CROWN

These eight actors are one trophy away from the coveted ESOT

A TERM TOSSED AROUND BY AWARDS

pundits and fans is the “triple crown of acting,” used for people who have earned an Emmy, Oscar, and Tony for acting. We’d like to propose an alternative: the quadruple crown. In addition to those three esteemed trophies, a SAG Award should be added to the mantel! Eight actors, including several of this year’s contenders, are only one statuette shy.
