If Erivo's cast in the movie musical of ''The Color Purple'' and wins the Oscar, she completes her EGOT.
Ditto, if Ben Platt's cast in the movie musical of ''Dear Evan Hansen'' and wins the Oscar, he completes his EGOT.
Winning the EGOT - top awards in 4 different media: TV, recording, film, theater - usually involves different artistic properties.
But Erivo and Platt could complete their EGOT with the same role. Has that ever been done before? Who gets their EGOT first?
(Erivo and Platt got their Tony for Broadway; their Grammy for the cast album; their Emmy for a TV appearance plugging their show.) |
