2025 Emmys: Severance Leads with 27 Nominations
The 77th Emmy nominations are in, and Severance earned the most with 27. The Penguin followed with 24, while The White Lotus and The Studio picked up 23 each. The event takes place September 14 at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, hosted by Nate Bargatze.
The nominations were announced July 15 by Harvey Guillén and Brenda Song at the Television Academy’s Wolf Theatre.
One standout this year is Owen Cooper, who received a supporting actor nomination for his performance in Adolescence at just 15 years old. That’s a new record for the limited series category. Harrison Ford also drew attention with his first-ever Emmy nomination for Shrinking.
“I’m just happy people saw the work,” Cooper told reporters.
