John Travolta on his Emmy nomination: 'I'm still in the game'

The actor recently earned his first Emmy nomination for his revelatory performance as Robert Shapiro in "The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story," but Travolta didn't see it coming.

"I did not assume at all [that I would be nominated] by the way, because I've been around too long," Travolta told CNN in an interview on Wednesday. "I've been acknowledged over the years for various performances, but the big acknowledgements were "Saturday Night Fever," "Pulp Fiction" and this."
