Emmys 2023: Succession, The Last of Us lead the nominees
David Farnor | On 12, Jul 2023
Succession, The Last of Us and The White Lotus are leading the nominees in the 2023 Emmys race.
HBO’s dominance of the awards has continued for another year, with Succession bagging 27 nods, ahead of The Last of Us (24) and The White Lotus (23). Apple TV+ hit Ted Lasso comes close behind on 21, while Amazon’s The Marvelous Mrs Maisel is hot on its heels with 14 – followed by The Bear (13). Netflix’s biggest contenders are Beef (13), Dahmer (13) and Wednesday (12).
The latters aren’t the only newcomers with Andor and Obi-Wan Kenobi also picking up nods, along with House of the Dragon (8) and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (6). There were 38 first-time performer nominees across all performer categories this season including Jessica Chastain (George & Tammy), Elizabeth Debicki (The Crown), Taron Egerton (Black Bird), Riley Keough (Daisy Jones & The Six), James Marsden (Jury Duty), Jenna Ortega (Wednesday), Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us, Saturday Night Live, and Patagonia: Life on the Edge of the World), Aubrey Plaza (The White Lotus), Daniel Radcliffe (Weird: The Al Yankovic Story), Bella Ramsey (The Last of Us), Alan Ruck (Succession), Jason Segel (Shrinking), Jeremy Allen White (The Bear) and Steven Yeun (Beef).
Familiar contenders such as Only Murders In The Building (11) are unsurprisingly in the mix, along with The Crown (7), Better Call Saul (7), Barry (11) and Abbott Elementary (8). In total, HBO has 127 nods, ahead of Netflix’s 103, Amazon’s 45 and Disney+’s 40 (not including shows that air on Hulu in the US and are on Disney+ in the UK).
