Donald Glover and Bill Hader earn five Emmy nominations apiece

Donald Glover and Bill Hader are putting the multi into multihyphenate.

The two earned five Emmy nominations apiece Thursday morning.

Glover earned nods for lead actor in a comedy series, directing for a comedy series, and writing for a comedy series _ all for his sophomore season of FX's "Atlanta."

His fourth nomination came for guest actor in a comedy series from when he hosted "Saturday Night Live" this past season.

Hader was also nominated for lead actor in a comedy series, directing in a comedy series and writing for a comedy series for his rookie HBO comedy "Barry." Like Glover, Hader was also nominated for guest actor in a comedy series for his turn hosting "Saturday Night Live."

In addition to their individual nominations, both Glover and Hader were nominated as producers on their comedy series, which will duke it out for comedy series.

This is the second year in a row Glover has earned at least four nods. Last year, he took home the Emmy Awards for lead actor and directing.

In total, "Atlanta" drew 16 nominations _ the most of any comedy series, while "Barry" pulled in 13.
