We\u2019re in this phase where there\u2019s a sleep regression,\u201d he tells <em>The Hollywood Reporter<\/em> on a call from Paris shortly after his nomination. <\/p>\n<p>\n\tBetween his daughter adjusting to the time difference and his Emmy nomination, he\u2019s already feeling like a winner for the day. He adds, \u201cAlls to say is holy shit, how exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\tMelton, who plays Austin in the hit series, went into the day feeling hopeful about the prospect of being nominated. \u201cAnyone that says they don\u2019t think about the possibility of some sort of recognition as close to the announcements of recognition, when you\u2019re in this arena where you\u2019re being talked about\u2026\u201d he says. \u201cIt\u2019s hard to not be hopeful and thoughtful and the possibility of what could be.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n<em>Beef<\/em> had a great showing at Wednesday\u2019s Emmy nominations. However, one of the biggest snubs of the year was Cailee Spaeny, who plays Ashley in the show. The actor has nothing but incredible things to say about his costar and on screen fianc\u00e9e. He calls her his family and his rock \u2014 she was the first person to text him this morning after his nomination was announced.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tMelton, who was an executive producer on the project and therefore earned a nomination for the show\u2019s best limited series or anthology nomination, has no shortage of gratitude for the show\u2019s creator, writer and director Lee Sung Jin, his fellow cast members and the crew. \u201cI just keep thinking about my Teamster right now, Baker, who would drive me to and from work every day,\u201d Melton admits. \u201cI love that guy. Thank you, Baker.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\tLee actually wrote the part of Austin with Melton in mind, and he used a Gold House dinner celebration to pitch the actor the part. \u201cIt\u2019s amazing to be a part of the genesis of something, [to be] part of the early stages of something being created and developed and written. Sonny told me in the beginning where he saw the season ending,\u201d Melton explains. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/uspropertymoves.com\/?p=3319\">\u2018Little House on the Prairie\u2019 Review: Netflix\u2019s Laura Ingalls Wilder Reboot Sparkles With Appealingly Wholesome Sincerity<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\t\u201cFrom there, it was just these endless conversations of such sensitive, vulnerable, heartfelt, soulful questions about our existentialism, our existence in life, our identity under the umbrella of capitalism and different suicidal norms through the diaspora of just the show,\u201d he continues. <\/p>\n<p>\n\tMelton says every scene he had with Spaeny ranks among his favorite scenes. \u201cThe work was so alive and we put so much into it. We were in a waking dream together with our characters and life and just with our work,\u201d he says. <\/p>\n<p>\n\tLee has spoken about how he feels about Austin and Ashley end up in the show. But Melton has a bit of a hot take in that regard. \u201cI think they\u2019re happily in love,\u201d Melton says of the couple. Most of the internet might not agree with that one. <\/p>\n<p>\n\t\u201cWe just saw one moment, when they\u2019re both at work tired and Austin is being asked to read the book that night to the kids. We just assume and project,\u201d he says. <\/p>\n<p>\n\tMelton thinks how the audience reads the interaction provides an insight into them as a person. He finds beauty in not always going down the worst path. \u201cIt\u2019s good to be hopeful and optimistic. Sometimes it\u2019s more of a struggle to do that, which is the complete reflection of who Austin is,\u201d he says. \u201cStruggling to always be optimistic and do the right thing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/uspropertymoves.com\/?p=3317\">\u2018Dancing With the Stars\u2019 Bosses, Dancers Celebrate Breaking Back Into Emmys Race: \u201cDeeply Grateful for This Recognition\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Beef star Charles Melton shares his excitement about the his first Emmy nomination for the role of Austin in the Netflix series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3322,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[245,443,2428,261,826,2429,2394,2395,936,827,2430],"class_list":["post-3323","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interesting","tag-awards","tag-beef","tag-cailee-spaeny","tag-charles-melton","tag-emmy-awards","tag-emmy-awards-2026","tag-emmy-nominations","tag-emmy-nominations-2026","tag-emmys","tag-emmys-2026","tag-lee-sung-jin"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
