Gold Derby can exclusively reveal that Keri Russell is entering “The Americans” episode “The Summit” as her Emmy submission for Best Drama Actress. This installment aired May 16 and was the eighth episode of the sixth and final season for the FX show.

In this segment, Soviet spy Elizabeth Jennings (Russell) has been posing as a nurse to a terminal woman. When her husband fails to help her commit suicide, Elizabeth must finish the job. She has been using a young governmental worker to bug his boss’ office. When he figures out her plan, he confronts her in the car. She could kill him off but lets him go instead.

It’s the third consecutive nomination at the Emmys for Russell in this role. For the 2018 ceremony, she faces off against reigning champ Elisabeth Moss (“The Handmaid’s Tale”) and the previous year’s winner Tatiana Maslany (“Orphan Black”). Previous nominees are Claire Foy (“The Crown”), Sandra Oh (“Killing Eve”) and Evan Rachel Wood (“Westworld”).
