The Television Academy announced nominations for the 77th Emmy Awards on Tuesday morning, following a record-breaking turnout of voting members. Hosted by Harvey Guillén and Brenda Song, the live presentation highlighted a strong showing from Apple TV+ and HBO Max, with Severance and The Studio leading their respective categories.

Apple TV+ emerged as a top contender, with Severance receiving 27 nominations in the drama category and The Studio earning 23 nods in comedy. HBO Max led all platforms with 142 total nominations, driven by The Penguin, The White LotusThe Last of Us, and Hacks.

This year’s list includes 33 first-time acting nominees, ranging from established film stars like Javier Bardem and Jake Gyllenhaal to newcomers such as 15-year-old Owen Cooper, recognized for his role in Adolescence. Cooper is now the youngest nominee ever in the supporting actor category for a limited or anthology series or television movie. Other first-time nominees include Zoë Kravitz, Colin Farrell, Kristen Bell, and Cristin Milioti. Oscar-winning director Martin Scorsese earned his first Emmy nomination as an actor for a guest role in The Studio, while Kathy Bates made history as the oldest woman nominated for lead actress in a drama, at age 77.

Several performers received nominations across multiple categories. Seth Rogen was recognized for acting, writing, and directing for The Studio. Others with more than one nomination include Quinta Brunson, Ayo Edebiri, Julianne Nicholson, Stephen Graham, and Catherine O'Hara.

In the drama race, returning nominees include The Last of Us and The White Lotus, alongside newer titles such as Hulu’s Paradise, HBO Max’s The Pitt, and Netflix’s The Diplomat. Apple TV+’s Slow Horses also returned, after earning its first Emmy last year.

In comedy, Hacks is joined by Abbott Elementary, Only Murders in the BuildingWhat We Do in the Shadows, and Shrinking. The Bear returns after a strong showing in previous years, while The Studio makes its debut in the category.
