Emmy nominations 2025: Full list of nominees

There were some unexpected inclusions – and exclusions – as the full list of Emmy Award nominees was announced in Hollywood.

Severance is officially leading the pack heading into the 77th annual Primetime Emmy Awards, collecting a whopping 27 nominations.

The psychological workplace drama series is followed by The Penguin with 24 nods, The Studio and The White Lotus with 23 each, The Last of Us with 16, Andor and Hacks with 14, and Adolescence, The Bear and The Pitt with 13 apiece.

There was a lot of love across the board for The White Lotus, including for its ensemble cast, while breakout hospital drama The Pitt landed nods for outstanding drama series, lead actor, supporting actress, writing and directing.

Poker Face’s Natasha Lyonne found herself among the unexpectedly “snubbed” list, along with last year’s first-time Emmy nominee, Selena Gomez, for her role in Only Murders In The Building.

This year’s crop of nominees were unveiled during a live virtual event on Tuesday morning, US time, by What We Do In The Shadows star Harvey Guillén and Running Point’s Brenda Song.

The actual awards show is being held at the Peacock Theatre in LA on September 14 and will be hosted by Nate Bargatze.
