No, it was just a tweet, and it was posted elsewhere.

BLL won three Emmys over the weekend at the Creative Arts portion of the Emmys:

..HBO’s “Big Little Lies” won for casting for a limited series. Two other wins for “Big Little Lies” — the first-ever music supervision award and contemporary costumes — indicate Emmy voters’ affection for the limited series. HBO’s “The Night Of” collected four wins that recognized the craftsmanship of the show, taking the trophies for cinematography, editing, sound mixing and sound editing...

What does Dada do? Looking at the replies to his initial post, he got a lot suggestions for things to do and is probably being a tourist.
Leave it to Alex to have his first pic from the set an unexplained shot of his 'bloody' hand. :)
 
I have a question. Does Alex pay Dada to hang out with him on film sets or while he promotes a movie? I know they are best friends and all but I just don't understand Dada lifestyle. I'm so intrigued.
 
Alexander Skarsgard (‘Big Little Lies’) holds on to a narrow lead in our Emmy predictions with 6/5 odd
  • Sep 13, 2017 12:00 pm
Big Little Lies” has been the Emmy frontrunner for Best Limited Series since the nominations were announced in July. Actually, it’s the frontrunner in every category it’s nominated for at the primetime telecast this Sunday, September 17. That includes Best Movie/Mini Supporting Actor, where Alexander Skarsgard has the lead for his role as an abusive husband, but based on our predictions this will be its closest race. As of this writing Skarsgard leads with odds of 6/5, which translates to a 45% chance of winning.

These official racetrack odds are based on the latest predictions of Expert TV journalists, Gold Derby’s own Editors, the Top 24 Users who got the high scores in last year’s Emmy predictions, the All-Star Top 24 who scored high in the last two years’ combined Emmy predix, and thousands of total Users who are our largest and often smartest predictions bloc.

Skarsgard’s biggest threat is Alfred Molina, who gets 10/3 odds, or a 24% chance of winning for his role as real-life “What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?” director Robert Aldrich in “Feud: Bette and Joan.” Molina was nominated once before in this category, for “The Normal Heart” in 2014, but he has never won an Emmy. Neither has Skarsgard, but voters might consider a veteran character actor like Molina more due for a victory.

Another veteran actor, David Thewlis (“Fargo”), also has a possibility of upsetting, ranked third with 13/2 odds, or a 14% chance of victory. And we might also be underestimating Molina’s “Feud” co-star Stanley Tucci, who is the only past Emmy winner in this category — in fact, he has three victories out of seven previous bids. But he trails with 12/1 odds, which gives him just an 8% chance of winning. Both Thewlis and Tucci play mustache twirling villains, Thewlis as a sociopathic corporate raider and killer and Tucci as cynical studio head Jack Warner. Emmy voters typically love showy performances, so watch out for them both.

That leaves two actors from “The Night Of,” Bill Camp and Michael Kenneth Williams, each lurking with 20/1 odds, or a 5% chance of coming out on top. But if last weekend’s Creative Arts Emmys are any indication, we might be underestimating “The Night Of” across the board. The limited series won four awards, making it one of the weekend’s most honored programs. However, those awards were for picture editing, cinematography, sound editing, and sound mixing, so they don’t tell us how the actors branch will greet it this weekend

Thanks, ladies!

Some Throwback Thursday pics shared on instagram today (September 14, 2017):

“That evening in Ghent, when Alexander Skarsgård INSISTED on hugging me after our dinner date. (We went out to eat after I introduced him to the Belgian audience for his movie premiere… that’s a date, right?) Side note: Alexander’s got the biggest hands of ANY man that ever hugged me. ✋

See Alexander now in the amazing miniseries Big Little Lies. He’s probably gonna win an Emmy. Well deserved, handsome."

SUPPORTING ACTOR, TV MOVIE/LIMITED SERIES
Bill Camp, The Night Of
Alfred Molina, Feud: Bette and Joan
Alexander Skarsgard, Big Little Lies
David Thewlis, Fargo
Stanley Tucci, Feud: Bette and Joan
Michael Kenneth Williams, The Night Of

Big Little Lies is the heavyweight in this category, but the show is all about the women—which makes Alexander Skarsgard a favorite but not necessarily a guarantee here. He at least has the advantage of his toughest competition—namely, Alfred Molina and Stanley Tucci—being nominated from the same show, leaving lots of vote-splitting potential. And Skarsgard made a truly menacing villain in the series, which only became more impressive when his character put on his public face, showing how someone so monstrous could get away with his heinous actions for so long. The sight of Skarsgard and Kidman smiling with their matching Emmys would be a refreshing coda to one of the most memorable awful relationships ever portrayed on TV.

I adore big guys who love and respect their moms <most definately it doesn't mean they should live with them, call them every single day - my own mom type, for all kids, gender n/a, eh - simply say thank you a lot, call ones a week to say I'm fine and alive and show up from time to time, but just to drink coffee/eat cake and not to ask them for food or to do laundry for them ;) And I'm totally positive Alexander is just like that. Or close ;) I loved when Leonardo DiCaprio took his mom for some red carpet outings, or Bradley Cooper and Matthew McConaughey. Emmys 2017, I would like to see Alex with someone, not alone, but I know it's unreal and he won't take his mom us his date. As far as I know My is not a red carpet type. She's a cool, normal person, with no pressure to be famous. I saw some interviews with her (in Swedish, as I understand a little bit) and she's so humble and modest, even shy, really warm person. I think Alexander enjoys attention and red carpets, sometimes he's so all eyes on me, but I simply think he may be nervous and deep inside he would also love to share this moment with someone close ;) Can't wait!
 
^Thanks, Buckeye!

Pics of Alex arriving at LAX on Thursday (September 14, 2017):

Alexander Skarsgard makes his way out of LAX Airport after touching down in town on Thursday night (September 14) in Los Angeles.

The 41-year-old actor is back in town just in time to attend the Emmys this weekend and he’s sporting a new mustache!

My has attended premieres in Sweden but I don't think she's done a full-blown red carpet like the Emmys though. I'd love to see him bring My though. So if not My perhaps Gustaf? I'm hoping that Alex, Gustaf and Fares are at the HBO after party on Sunday.
And since he's in LA now, perhaps we'll get to see him tonight at this:
Performers Nominee Reception: 7 p.m., Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts
http://variety.com/2017/tv/news/emmys-2017-party-guide-list-events-1202551818/

I'm not really digging the mustache. It's not that he looks terrible, it's just not really his best look.

I'm presuming it's for the role, otherwise he doesn't normally sport the 'stache unless it's actually for something. I wish TKT had just let him be clean shaven.
And yes, I'm liking it even less because of the TR shoot.
