The nominations for the 76th Emmy Awards are set. Among them are some surprises, premieres, and stars that were overlooked.
Superstar Ryan Gosling is thrilled about his first Emmy nomination, Oscar winner Emma Stone, however, came up empty-handed.
First Emmy nomination for Ryan Gosling – Emma Stone is empty-handed
On July 17, the Nominations for the 76th Emmy-Awards were announced. As every year, there were some surprises, stars who were snubbed, and first-time nominees. For instance, “Barbie” leading actor Ryan Gosling (43) can now look forward to his first Emmy-Nomination ever – for his role as host of an episode of the long-running Sketch-Show “Saturday Night Live”.
Selena Gomez celebrates first Emmy-Nomination as Actress
Singer and actress Selena Gomez (31) has been successful with the popular Comedy-Series “Only Murders in the Building” since 2021. However, she had only been nominated twice before as an executive producer for her involvement in the Hulu-Show. Now, there’s recognition for her acting in the entertaining Murder-Mystery-Series. Gomez is nominated as “Best Actress in a Comedy Series” – her very first Emmy-Nomination in an acting category.
Jon Hamm has two chances to win
Former “Mad Men” star Jon Hamm (53) is up for a double nomination. His performance in “The Morning Show” on Apple TV+ earned him a nomination as “Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series”. For the fifth season of the anthology-series “Fargo”, Hamm is nominated as “Best Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series”.
Emma Stone, Kate Winslet and Nicole Kidman come up empty-handed
Oscar-winner Emma Stone (35) didn’t fare well. Her performance in the Showtime-Series “The Curse” didn’t impress the Emmy-Voters. The “Poor Things” star joined Oscar-winner Kate Winslet (48), who failed to win over the Emmy-Voters with her work in the HBO-Production “The Regime”. Nicole Kidman (57) also didn’t receive a nomination for the series “Expats”.
Lily Gladstone and Kali Reis as first indigenous women in an acting category nominated
Lily Gladstone (37) had a huge success as an actress with Martin Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon” – including an Oscar-Nomination as “Best Actress”. Now, she received an Emmy-Nomination as “Best Supporting Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series” for the Hulu-Show “Under the Bridge”.
Likewise, indigenous actress Kali Reis (37) was nominated in the same category for her performance alongside Oscar-winner Jodie Foster (61) in the fourth season of the anthology-series “True Detective: Night Country” from HBO. Gladstone and Reis are the first indigenous women to be nominated in an acting category at the Emmys.
- The Emmy-winning series “Mad Men” showcased Jon Hamm’s exceptional acting skills, earning him a prominent position in the television industry.
Interestingly, the talented Ryan Gosling, known for his Barbie-Doll looks in films like “La La Land,” also made headlines with his first Emmy nomination for hosting “Saturday Night Live.”
In addition to Gosling, starring in the critically acclaimed “Mad Men,” Jon Hamm has been nominated for two Emmy Awards this year, one for his role in “The Morning Show” and another in “Fargo.”
After her impressive first Emmy nomination, Selena Gomez continues to shine on Hulu’s popular series “Only Murders in the Building,” starring alongside Steve Martin and Martin Short.
Despite receiving a nomination as an executive producer earlier, Gomez reached new heights in her acting career with her Emmy nod as “Best Actress in a Comedy Series.”
Alongside Gomez, actors like Rhea Perlman, Laverne Cox, and Jean Smart were also recognized in the same category, making this year’s Emmy Awards an exciting event for comedy lovers.
Meanwhile, notable actors such as Ryan Gosling, Nicole Kidman, Selena Gomez, and Emma Stone were not recognized with an Emmy Award this year, despite their impressive careers and recent projects.
Actress Lily Gladstone, who recently received an Oscar nomination for her work in “Killers of the Flower Moon,” creates history as the first indigenous woman to be nominated in the acting category at the Emmys.
Furthermore, Kali Reis follows in Gladstone’s footsteps as the second indigenous woman to be nominated in the acting category, showcasing the increasing recognition and representation of diverse talent in the television industry.
