Examiner: Michael Sheen gets an Emmy nomination for 'Relationship'

Michael Sheen("Aro" in The Twilight Saga: New Moon) is probably having a nice day today, considering he's just been announced as one of this year's Emmy nominees for his work in The Special Relationship.

Sheen is nominated for "Outstanding Lead Actor In A Miniseries Or A Movie" for Relationship, and the film itself received quite a few other nominations as well.

Relationship isn't the only New Moon cast-related nomination on this morning's list.

Jamie Campbell Bower ("Caius")'s The Prisoner, Peter Facinelli ("Carlisle Cullen")'s Nurse Jackie, and Melissa Rosenberg (screenwriter)'s Dexter are also recognized in several categories (as is Jimmy Kimmel Live's "Handsome Men's Club" episode which poked fun at Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner).

The Emmy Awards nominations are available in full here.
