determines its definitive Top 10 lists using data from IMDbPro
STARmeter rankings, which are based on the actual page views of the
more than 200 million monthly visitors to IMDb. IMDb also announced
today that this year’s Top Breakout Star, Emma D’Arcy, accepted an

throughout the year. IMDbPro STARmeter rankings are based on the

Emma D’Arcy received an IMDb “Breakout Star” STARmeter Award for
their performance as Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen in House of the
Dragon, which ranks as one of the Most Popular TV Shows on IMDb
this year. D’Arcy has been a strong performer this year on the
IMDbPro STARmeter chart, spending three weeks in the No. 1 spot and
an additional eight weeks in the Top 10. D’Arcy also ranked No. 2
on the overall Top Stars of 2022 list, and is followed by House of
the Dragon co-star Milly Alcock, who plays the younger version of
Rhaenyra Targaryen. STARmeter rankings are determined by the page
views of the more than 200 million monthly visitors to IMDb
worldwide. Previous IMDb STARmeter Award recipients include
Regé-Jean Page, Eiza González, Alexander Skarsgård, Priyanka Chopra
Jonas, John David Washington, Anya Chalotra, and D’Arcy’s House of
the Dragon co-star, Olivia Cooke. Learn more about IMDb STARmeter
Awards at imdb.com/starmeterawards.
Speaking exclusively to IMDb, D’Arcy expressed, “I feel so
grateful to the fans of House of the Dragon for welcoming me and
the rest of the cast into what is their universe. I have been
amazed and very humbled by the love with which us Westerosi
newcomers have been met! I have never before had the privilege of
sharing a loved character with a fanbase—it felt like borrowing a
treasured possession from a friend. I am so grateful to have been
trusted with it.”
D’Arcy also shared the story behind their first IMDb credit, the
2018 series Wanderlust, which also starred Toni Collette and Zawe
Ashton. “Wanderlust was my first proper experience of acting on
camera. I had never been inside a studio before, I had never seen a
call sheet before! I couldn’t believe the snacks were free!? I
remember trying to ration my questions in an effort to mask my
inexperience. I was very lucky on that show—the whole team was
kind, caring, and patient. They looked after me beautifully. And in
a way, it was the perfect project to support a transition from
theatre to screen. Nick Payne originally wrote Wanderlust as a
stage play, which was then adapted and extended for television. I
knew that play well and adored it! So despite the newness of the
medium, the world of the story was wonderfully familiar.”

Garner, Millie Bobby Brown, and Lily James joined Ana de Armas, who
have all previously ranked in the IMDb year-end lists. De Armas
