Sterlin Harjo’s “The Lowdown” was a love letter to Tulsa. Now, the Oklahoma film scene is writing one back in hopes of helping the Tulsa native earn his first Emmy.<\/p>\n

The Tulsa Office of Film, Music, Arts & Culture is working with the support of Tulsans to run a non-traditional “For Your Consideration” ad on deadline.com to push “The Lowdown” for Emmys consideration.<\/p>\n

The ad links back to an FX video<\/a> on the behind-the-scenes process of filming the Tulsa-based drama.<\/p>\n

“The Lowdown,” which aired its debut season on FX and Hulu during the fall season, follows the story of Lee Rayborn, who was inspired by the late Tulsa citizen journalist and self-taught historian Lee Roy Chapman, played by four-time Oscar nominee Ethan Hawke. Chapman died in 2015 at the age of 46.<\/p>\n

“It’s really a story that can only be told in Tulsa, by Tulsa, and so we’re so excited to get that out there, and we just wanted to thank Sterlin (Harjo) and Ethan Hawke and the whole ‘Lowdown’ team for this opportunity to have this film in Tulsa,” said Meg Gould, executive director and film commissioner of the FMAC office.<\/p>\n

The show is currently filming its second season in Tulsa, and through the exposure that Tulsa received in the FX show, as well as several other projects filming in and around Tulsa, it has helped build the crew and experience for teams filming.<\/p>\n

Harjo has been nominated for one Comedy Emmy in 2024 for his work on “Reservation Dogs.”<\/p>\n

What is “The Lowdown” about?<\/h2>\n

Four-time Oscar nominee Ethan Hawke portrays the self-proclaimed Tulsa “truthstorian” with an obsession with truth-telling that consistently gets him in trouble.<\/p>\n

Although Lee\u2019s no idealist, he’s on an ongoing mission to unearth the city\u2019s hidden rot that often pulls him away from his 14-year-old daughter Francis (Ryan Kiera Armstrong, “Skeleton Crew”), a precocious teenager who\u2019s inherited her father’s curiosity and yearns to join him on his adventures.<\/p>\n
