Other big contenders include The White Lotus, The Studio and Shrinking, as well as Adolescence, which is not only nominated as a series but for which all of the top five starring cast members have been nominated.

This includes Owen Cooper, who, if he wins, will become the youngest ever male winner of an acting Emmy.

As always, there were some surprises and snubs. Sharon Horgan's nomination for her role in Bad Sisters was unexpected by awards watchers, while Squid Game season 2 was shut out completely, getting no nominations.

The cast of Andor were also entirely missing, even though the show itself scooped up some nominations, while Harrison Ford secured a surprise first ever Emmy nomination for his role in Shrinking.

Read on for the full list of 2025 Emmy nominations.
