The actor starred as the American murderer, rapist, and suspected serial killer Larry Hall in Apple TV’s Blackbird.
On accepting his award, Hauser thanked numerous members of the cast. However, he failed to mention the show’s lead, Taron Egerton, who played one-time Chicago drug dealer James Keene.
It’s unclear whether the actor’s omission was deliberate, though, as he did hug Egerton after he was announced as winner.
On Twitter, fans pointed out that Hauser had failed to mention his costar.
“Of all the cast, did dude forget to thank Taron Egerton???” One asked.
“Amazing show. Did he forget to mention Taron Egerton?” Tweeted another.
Another wrote: “Imagine thanking Jesus but not Taron Egerton.”
