Press release from July 12, 2023:

Nominations for the 75th Emmy Awards were announced today from the Hollywood Athletic Club, recognizing extraordinary programming, performances and a diverse range of exceptional storytelling across multiple platforms.

The live virtual ceremony was hosted by Emmy Award-nominated actress Yvette Nicole Brown and Television Academy Chair Frank Scherma.

This season, the Emmy Awards celebrates its 75th Anniversary and the nominations were streamed live from the place it all began in 1949, the famed Hollywood Athletic Club. That relatively modest Los Angeles-area ceremony which featured just five awards categories and $5 admission tickets has evolved into television’s biggest night, celebrating excellence throughout the industry and viewed by television fans around the world. In the age of “peak TV” with close to 600 original scripted series, the nominations recognize the importance of the performers, producers, writers, directors, craftspeople, and all those who worked on television programs in the past year.

There are more than 20,000 voting members of the Academy and this year’s nominations marked the highest voter participation in Emmy history.

Succession holds this year’s top spot with 27 Emmy nominations followed by The Last of Us (24), The White Lotus (23) and Ted Lasso (21).

“We are thrilled with the historic level of participation from our voting members this Emmy season,” said Scherma. “As we approach the remarkable milestone of the Emmy’s 75th anniversary, the Academy is more appreciative than ever of another year of extraordinary content. We are honored to recognize those who have elevated the world’s favorite global medium.”

There were 38 first-time performer nominees across all performer categories this season including Jessica Chastain (George & Tammy), Elizabeth Debicki (The Crown), Taron Egerton (Black Bird), Riley Keough (Daisy Jones & The Six), James Marsden (Jury Duty), Jenna Ortega (Wednesday), Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us, Saturday Night Live, and Patagonia: Life on the Edge of the World), Aubrey Plaza (The White Lotus), Daniel Radcliffe (Weird: The Al Yankovic Story), Bella Ramsey (The Last of Us), Alan Ruck (Succession), Jason Segel (Shrinking), Jeremy Allen White (The Bear) and Steven Yeun (BEEF).

In addition to Pascal, performers with multiple nominations this year include Murray Bartlett (The Last Of Us and Welcome To Chippendales), Alex Borstein (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and Family Guy), Quinta Brunson (Abbott Elementary and Saturday Night Live), Bill Hader (performance, directing and writing for Barry), Sharon Horgan (performance and writing for Bad Sisters), Melanie Lynskey (Yellowjackets and The Last of Us), Jason Sudeikis (performance and writing for Ted Lasso), and Ali Wong (BEEF and Tuca & Bertie).

The nominations rosters may be revised in cases where names or titles are incorrect or appeals for changes—including the addition or removal of names—are approved by the Television Academy’s Emmy Awards Committee. Producer eligibility is based primarily on title; producer nominees in certain program categories will be announced mid-August and may increase the number of multiple nominees. Final-round online voting begins August 17, 2023.

The complete list of Emmy nominations, as compiled by the independent accounting firm of Ernst & Young LLP, and other Academy news and updates are available here at Emmys.com.

The 75th Emmy Awards is currently scheduled to broadcast live on FOX on Monday, September 18, (8:00-11:00 PM EDT/5:00-8:00 PM PDT) from the Peacock Theater at L.A. LIVE.

Focus Features’ Northern Ireland drama “Belfast” won three Critics Choice Awards: Best Original Screenplay (for Kenneth Branagh), Best Young Actor/Actress (for Jude Hill) and Best Acting Ensemble. Also winning three Critics Choice Awards was Warner Bros. Pictures’ sci-fi remake “Dune,” which took the prizes for Best Production Design, Best Visual Effects and Best Score.

In the TV categories, “Ted Lasso” won these four prizes: Best Comedy Series, Best Actor in a Comedy Series (for Jason Sudeikis), Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series (for Hannah Waddingham) and Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series (for Brett Goldstein).

2022 Screen Actors Guild Awards: ‘CODA,’ ‘Squid Game’ are the top winners

February 27, 2022

by Carla Hay

Apple TV+’s comedy/drama film “CODA” was the big movie winner at the 28th annual Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards, which were presented on February 27, 2022, at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California. TNT and TBS and the U.S. telecast of the ceremony. In the television categories, Netflix’s South Korean drama series “Squid Game” won the most prizes (three), while Apple TV+’s comedy series “Ted Lasso” won two SAG Awards.

“CODA” is about a Massachusetts teenage girl whose older brother and parents are deaf. She’s an aspiring singer who must decide if she will go to Berklee College of Music after graduating from high school, or if she will stay in her hometown to continue working in her family’s fishing business. The movie received the SAG Awards for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture, while Troy Kotsur won the prize for Outstanding Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role. Kotsur is the first deaf actor to win an individual SAG Award, while “CODA” is the first movie with deaf actors to win the prize for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture. (Three of “CODA’s” six winning cast members are deaf.)

“Squid Game” is about a deadly game where the contestants were chosen based on sins they’ve committed. The show’s three SAG Awards in 2022 were Lee Jung-Jae for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series; Jung Ho Yeon for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series; and Outstanding Action Performance by a Stunt Ensemble in a Television Series. “Squid Game” is the first TV series from an Asian country and the first non-English-language TV series to win SAG Awards in the TV categories.

“Ted Lasso,” which is about an American soccer coach in England, won two SAG Awards in 2022: Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series, while “Ted Lasso” star Jason Sudeikis took the prize for Outstanding Performance by a Lead Actor in a Comedy Series.

Helen Mirren received the Life Achievement Award, a non-competitive prize whose annual recipient is announced several weeks before the SAG Awards ceremony takes place.

Presenters at the show included Benedict Cumberbatch, Jessica Chastain, Jung Ho-Yeon, Martin Short, Oscar Isaac, Salma Hayek Pinault, Selena Gomez, Kerry Washington, Tony Goldwyn, Reese Witherspoon, SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher, Hailee Steinfeld, Jeff Goldblum, Jesse Plemons, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Lisa Kudrow, Mira Sorvino, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill. Aunjanue Ellis, Caitríona Balfe, Cate Blanchett, Ciarán Hinds, Daniel Durant, Daveed Diggs, Demi Singleton, Emilia Jones, Jamie Dornan, Jared Leto, Jude Hill, Kate Winslet, Lady Gaga, Meryl Streep, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Leslie Odom Jr., Marlee Matlin, Rosario Dawson, Saniyya Sidney, “CODA” SAG Awards double-winner Kotsur, Tyler Perry, Vanessa Hudgens, Will Smith and SAG Award Ambassadors Alexandra Daddario and Ross Butler.

According to a SAG Awards press release: “Nominees chosen by their respective SAG Awards film and television nominating committees were announced on January 12, 2022. The two nominating panels—one for television and one for motion picture—were each composed of 2,500 randomly selected SAG-AFTRA members from across the United States. Final voting opened to 124,000 SAG-AFTRA members in good standing on January 19, 2022, and balloting closed at noon on February 25, 2022. Integrity Voting Systems, the Awards’ official election firm, sealed the results until they were announced live during the 28th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards.” The 2022 SAG Awards eligibility period was March 1 to December 31, 2021.
