Everything You Need to Know About the 2025 Emmy Awards
The 2025 Emmy Awards are approaching, and viewers are eager to see who will take home the prestigious honors this year. With a strong lineup of competitors, including 'Adolescence', 'The White Lotus', 'Severance', and 'The Penguin', this promises to be an exciting ceremony.
15-year-old Owen Cooper, who stars in 'Adolescence', stands on the brink of becoming the youngest male actor to ever win an Emmy with his nomination for Best Supporting Actor in a Limited Series.
Elsewhere, the late-night talk show landscape has been energized by a campaign supporting Stephen Colbert’s 'The Late Show', which could win Outstanding Talk Series amid the show's recent cancellation announcement.
Host Details
This year, the Emmys will be hosted by the well-known US comedian Nate Bargatze, noted for his family-friendly brand of humor. Bargatze aims to make the event accessible and lively, even proposing a charity donation initiative based on speech lengths during the night.
Nominated Shows
Major contenders include:
- Outstanding Drama Series: 'The White Lotus', 'Andor', 'Severance', 'The Last of Us'
- Outstanding Comedy Series: 'The Bear', 'Hacks', 'Abbott Elementary'
- Limited and Anthology Series: 'Adolescence', 'Black Mirror', 'The Penguin'
Record Breakers and Controversies
If Owen Cooper wins, he would not only be the youngest male winner in any acting category but also set a record in his category. However, the youngest winner ever remains Roxana Zal, who won at just 14 years old in 1984.
