Elsewhere, among the nominations for the Emmys, Lionel Richie is nominated for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Special as an executive producer of The Greatest Night In Pop, whilst Atticus Ross, alongside Leopold Ross and Nick Chuba, have been nominated for two awards Shogun – Outstanding Music Composition for a Series (Original Dramatic Score) and Outstanding Original Main Title Theme Music.
