The 77th Emmy Awards nominees are a mixture of familiar and new, with Severance‘s second season topping the list with 27 nominations. Newbie The Studio scored 23 nominations, tying The Bear for the most Emmy nominations for a comedy series in a single year.
The Penguin received 24 nominations, and The White Lotus picked up 23. The Last Of Us earned 16 nominations, followed by Andor and Hacks with 14 each. Adolescence, The Bear, and The Pitt each received 13.
“In a year when the industry has continued to evolve—creatively, structurally, and economically—one thing remains clear: powerful performances and compelling stories still cut through. Emmy voters took notice this year as more members voted in the competition than ever before,” stated Television Academy Chair Cris Abrego. “It’s a reminder of the impact incredible television and exceptional artists have on all of us. We’re looking forward to recognizing the teams and individuals that rose to the top this season as we celebrate the best of television.”
This year’s batch of Emmy nominees includes first-timers Jake Gyllenhaal (Presumed Innocent), Javier Bardem (Monsters: The Lyle And Erik Menendez Story), Colin Farrell (The Penguin), Harrison Ford (Shrinking), Stephen Graham (Adolescence), Zoë Kravitz (The Studio), Anthony Mackie (The Studio), Cristin Milioti (The Penguin), Kristen Bell (Nobody Wants This), Adam Brody (Nobody Wants This), and Ruth Negga (Presumed Innocent).
15-year-old first-time nominee Owen Cooper (Adolescence) moved into the record book as the youngest nominee in the history of the outstanding supporting actor in a limited/anthology series or TV movie category. Kathy Bates is now the oldest Emmy nominee in the outstanding actress in a drama series category at 77.
Winners of the 2025 Emmy Awards will be announced live on Sunday, September 14th at 5pm PT/8pm ET. Nate Bargatze is hosting the awards show airing on CBS.
