75th Primetime Emmy Awards Postponed
/This year’s writers and actors strikes have not only had a big impact on the local economy, but also the industry itself, including the postponement of several awards ceremonies. The 75th Primetime Emmy Awards is among those that have been rescheduled. The annual event is traditionally held in mid-September, but it is now scheduled to take place on Monday, January 15.
As we previously reported, we are proud of the Broadway Stages productions that earned nominations. "Fire Island," a Hulu original film starring Joel Kim Booster and Bowen Yang, earned nominations for Outstanding Television Movie and Outstanding Writing for a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie. The gay romcom that included scenes filmed at our facilities was released on Hulu in June 2022.
HBO dominated this year's nominations with three popular dramas in the front of the pack. "Succession" racked up 27 nominations for its final season; "The Last of Us," a post-apocalyptic horror show based on a video game, garnered 24 for its first season; and the second season of "The White Lotus" earned 23 nods. Among comedies, Apple TV+'s "Ted Lasso" is the clear frontrunner, with 21 nominations for its final season.
Stay tuned to Broadway Stages' blog for updates on the strike and our productions, as well as the awards season. We remain hopeful that the negotiations are fairely resolved. We look forward to welcoming back cast and crew that keep our soundstages buzzing, help drive the local economy, and create the films and television shows that we all love.
