Stephen Root Gets Emmy Nod for ‘Widow’s Bay,’ ‘King of the Hill’
Root was nominated for outstanding supporting actor in a comedy series for Widow's Bay and returns as Bill Dauterive in the King of the Hill reboot.
- Actor Stephen Root earned an Emmy nomination this month for his supporting role as Wyck Crawford in the Apple TV series "Widow's Bay."
- Time never stood still for Root during the show's break; he filled his schedule with several series, guest shots, and a Coen Brothers film.
- Producers brought back "King of the Hill" after Fox canceled it in 2010; Disney acquired the rights, securing a home on Hulu for the revival.
- Root returns as Bill Dauterive, Hank Hill's neighbor, in the reboot; "Bill has always lived with me," he says of the character's continuity.
- The reboot introduces PG-13-rated language and a 21st century setting, which Root says allows more freedom in acting 10 years after the classic show ended.
