In the TV mini series, Gleeson plays a serial killer who seeks to curb his homicidal urges by holding his therapist, played by Steve Carrell, hostage.
Banshees comes up against Everything Everywhere All at Once with six nominations, Babylon and The Fabelmans with five each, as well as Elvis with three nominations.
