The 2021 Emmy nominations are in! Announced this morning by father-daughter duo, Ron and Jasmine Cephas Jones, WandaVision, Pose, Lovecraft Country, and Bridgerton were among this year’s nominees.
Following The Crown and The Mandalorian’s lead with 24 noms each, Marvel’s WandaVision follows with 23‚—including Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series and Lead Actors for superhero stars Paul Bettany and Elizabeth Olsen. MJ Rodriguez makes Emmy awards history by becoming the first transgender nominee in the Best Actress category for her role in Pose while the riveting Regency Era series, Bridgerton, racks up 12 noms including Best Actor for the historical heartthrob, Regé-Jean Page. Speaking of heartthrobs, also in the Best Actor category are Lovecraft Country hunk, Jonathan Majors, alongside This Is Us’ Sterling K. Brown, and Pose’s Billy Porter.

For your Emmy® Consideration – Mj Rodriguez – Outstanding Lead Actress In A Drama Series – POSE ✨#DTSFYC #PoseFX #Emmys #Blanca #houseofevang pic.twitter.com/PHNAuZVLqF— Michaela Jaé (Mj) (@MjRodriguez7) June 18, 2021
Heidi Hamilton’s longtime icon, Oprah Winfrey, snags a nom for Outstanding Hosted Nonfiction Series Or Special for her infamous interview with Gary With Da Tea’s royal cousins, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. While Kenan star Kenan Thompson joins Blackish’s Anthony Anderson and Tracee Ellis Ross for Lead Actor in a Comedy Series.
Unfortunately, some hit series such as Succession, Insecure, Euphoria, Ozark, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and more, fell short of this year’s eligibility due to the pandemic.
The 73rd Emmy Awards hosted by Kings of Comedy’s Cedric the Entertainer will air on Sunday, Sept. 19 on CBS in a live telecast starting at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT. Will you be tuned in? See below for the full list of nominees and to see what our Dish Nation hosts think about this year’s lineup!
