Veteran actor Jeff Kober, at 72, just earned his first-ever Primetime Emmy nomination for his powerhouse guest role as Duke Ekins on “The Pitt,” a character grappling with a life-threatening diagnosis. The show itself is dominating the Emmys with 25 drama nominations, including Outstanding Drama Series. Kober submitted himself for consideration — the network didn’t — because he believed the role was tailor-made for his craft. He’s already won a Daytime Emmy in 2022 for “General Hospital” and is now uniquely nominated for both a Primetime and Daytime Emmy this year for the same guest stint. Kober calls the emotional scenes, especially one with Noah Wyle exploring mental health and vulnerability, deeply challenging yet profoundly rewarding. He’s set to attend the ceremony with his wife, honoring all who’ve supported him along the way.
