Most actors won’t gain twenty pounds and grow out a scruffy beard for a guest role. Néstor Carbonell isn’t like most actors. Now, he has an Emmy to prove it.
“Never in a million years did I think something like this would come of it,” Carbonell said.
On Sept. 8, Carbonell walked up on stage at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles to accept his Emmy for outstanding guest actor in a drama series for ‘Shōgun.’ He helped bring the show’s total Creative Arts Emmy award wins to 14.
His role as Vasco Rodrigues, a foul-mouthed Spanish pirate, brought comedic relief to the tense drama. The unforgettable banter between Rodrigues and Cosmo Jarvis’ Blackthorne made Carbonell more than a guest actor to the Television Academy.
Carbonell’s world came to a standstill when he heard Jaime Lee Curtis announce his victory.
“It was lovely to be honored that way by the Academy,” Carbonell said. “To win was just completely unexpected.”
His first prime time gig was as a guest actor in “Law & Order” 33 years ago. To win while directing an episode of “Law & Order” made the award all the more sentimental.
“It was meaningful to me in a very full circle way, but also as an actor in a way to remind me how valuable that role is,” Carbonell said.
As a guest star, Carbonell had to steal the show while not taking the spotlight from the main cast. Viewers and the Television Academy found his technique masterful.
The novel “Shōgun” was previously adapted into a television mini-series in the 1980s. Carbonell refrained from seeing its portrayal of Rodrigues by John Rhys-Davies to deliver his own take on the infamous joker.
“I remember loving it as a kid, but I didn’t want to go back to it,” Carbonell said. “I just wanted to have my own sort of take on the role and not be colored by it.”
He was awestruck walking through recreations of imperial Japanese villages in Vancouver. Wearing the costume designer Carlos Rosario’s hand-made accessories took him back in time.
Crew members helped him perfect his Japanese and Castilian accent. Learning Japanese customs, like how to properly bow, was part of the routine.
“When you have that much talent around you and you do as much homework as you can, it just helps you get into that character even more,” Carbonell said.
Despite his family’s demands to keep it front and center, he keeps his award tucked away.
He’s taking his acclaimed skills to the director’s chair. Carbonell is directing an episode of “Law & Order” and prepares to return to Apple TV’s “The Morning Show” for its fourth season.
“‘The Morning Show’ is keeping me more than busy in the best way possible,” Carbonell said. “It’s such a beautifully written season by Charlotte Stout.”
The Emmy-winning drama series will be shooting through Thanksgiving.
Don’t lose track of Néstor Carbonell’s growing, impressive filmography. Catch him on “The Morning Show” and prepare for “Shōgun” season two by watching his award-winning performance on Hulu.
In honor of the 2nd anniversary of the release of Bandit, the director, Allan Unger has released 30 minutes of deleted scenes from the Director’s Cut of the movie with two scenes featuring Nestor Carbonell as Detective John Snydes. The two scenes are as described below:
The second scene is a cut interaction between Carbonell’s Detective John Snydes as he visits Diamond Dave in the hopes of finding Gilbert, only to be stalled by Dave’s girlfriend as she tries to verify Snydes’ status as an officer.
The video then cuts into the movie’s final deleted scene, in which Robert successfully beats a polygraph test from Snydes after his arrest…
In addition, Unger wrote a letter reflecting on the making of the movie with praise for Nestor’s performance which was almost hampered by a torn achilles tendon during the first week of shooting.
I saw that Néstor Carbonell just won an Emmy, and let me tell you something — that guy tore his achilles tendon the first week of filming and literally should have walked away to get medical attention. Not only did he stay, but he grinded it out with us for a month on a walking boot and pulled off scenes that nobody in their right mind should have done. His doctor would have had a heart attack if he knew what he was doing. A brilliant actor but also a tenacious and incredibly determined human being.
Néstor Carbonell has won Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series for his turn in FX’s Shōgun.
“This is overwhelming,” he told Deadline after his win. “When you work as an actor as long as I have, the role is a gift. Some years are good, some years you try to piece them together. You count your blessings when you are working. This is meaningful to me because my first job in TV was as a guest star on Law & Order. So it’s a little full circle today. As soon as [tonight’s over], I hop on a plane to finish directing an episode of Law & Order. So this is incredibly meaningful to me.”
Shortly after Carbonell clinched the award, Shōgun‘s casting team won the Emmy for Casting for a Drama Series. The project’s costume team also celebrated a win for Period Costumes for a Series.
Carbonell is arguably most known for his role as Richard Alpert in Lost, which he was in from 2007 through 2010. He was also in The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises opposite Gary Oldman in the Christopher Nolan classic, as Mayor Anthony Garcia. He also appeared in Bates Motel in a long arc as Sheriff Alex Romero. In addition to Shōgun, he is featured in Apple TV+’s The Morning Show opposite a star-studded cast led by Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon.
On September 8th, 2024 Nestor Carbonell took home the Emmy for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series for his role in Shogun. The gallery has been updated with photos from the event as well as video including his Emmy acceptance speech.

Congratulations Nestor Carbonell, who took home the Emmy for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama series for his role as Vasco Rodrigues in Shogun.
Néstor Carbonell grew facial hair, gained 25 pounds, learned how to appropriately bow and, yes, even learned how to row a boat for the FX limited series Shogun, which scored a leading 25 Emmy nominations, including one for Carbonell as guest actor.
Carbonell portrays Rodrigues, a Spanish pilot tasked with bringing Blackthorne (played by Cosmo Jarvis) to Lord Toranaga (Hiroyuki Sanada).
The actor likens Rodrigues to Iago in Othello as “sort of a Machiavellian character, someone who knows how to play people. He knows the chess game.”
Here, Carbonell walks THR through the preparation that led to his first Emmy nom.
Congratulations on your first Emmy nomination. What does this recognition mean to you for this show in particular?
That’s a great question because this character means so much to me. Being part of this amazing show, the whole experience was extraordinary, from the beginning all the way to the end. It’s not often as an actor that you get to play someone who’s quite far away from you in so many respects; physically, I had the opportunity to grow this nasty beard and gain some weight, and then learning a Castilian accent. Usually, when I work on a project, I end up hiring my own dialect coach because it’s not factored into the budget, but it was on Shogun. They truly spared no expense in terms of every detail. I got to work with a phenomenal coach and learn some Japanese as well.
