Dhaka, July 17 -- 'Adolescence' star Owen Cooper has made Emmy Awards history as one of the youngest nominees ever recognised by the prestigious US television academy. The 15-year-old British actor has earned a nomination for Best Supporting Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or TV Movie.

Should he win, Cooper would become the youngest male actor to receive an Emmy in this category. Prior to this, Scott Jacoby held the record, having been nominated at the age of 16 for the 1972 TV movie 'That Certain Summer'.
