Peter Dinklage had a record-breaking Emmys run during Game of Thrones, but his co-stars were far less fortunate.

Game of Thrones' final Emmys just wrapped up, and it's now official: Dinklage is the only actor to have ever won an Emmy for the show, as Gold Derby notes. That might seem hard to believe, considering the series' legendary ensemble cast, but it's true. Dinklage picked up Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for playing Tyrion Lannister four times: in 2011, 2015, 2018, and 2019.
