From the snowy roads of Minnesota to the sun-baked beaches of Italy, this year’s Emmy nominees for Best Lead Actor in a Limited Series certainly span the globe. But of course, only one of them can take home the trophy.

The five nominees in this category include a few familiar faces to TV fans, led by Jon Hamm, who won an Emmy for playing Mad Men’s Don Draper and is back here as swaggering sheriff Roy Tillman in FX’s Fargo. (He’s also nominated this year for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama, for The Morning Show.) Andrew Scott, known for his previous roles on Sherlock and Fleabag, is nominated here for playing jet-setting con man Tom Ripley in Netflix’s Ripley. Plus, White Collar alum Matt Bomer snagged a nod for playing Hawk in Showtime’s decade-spanning gay romance Fellow Travelers.

But there’s a newcomer in the mix, too: Richard Gadd is making his Emmy debut with a nod for playing stand-up comic Donny Dunn in Netflix’s searing tale Baby Reindeer. (Gadd earned nominations for writing and producing the series, as well.) Also celebrating his first career Emmy nomination is veteran actor Tom Hollander, for playing famed author Truman Capote in FX’s FEUD: Capote Vs. The Swans.
