2023 Emmy Nominations: Jason Segel, Ayo Edebiri & More First-Time Nominees

Emmys
The 75th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards has announced the 2023 nominees. The list was announced by Yvette Nicole Brown and Television Academy Chairman Frank Scherma.
Succession reigns supreme with the most nominations, coming in at 27 total noms, with The Last of Us, The White Lotus, and Ted Lasso following behind it. Many of the cast members of these beloved shows have been nominated before. But there’s a handful of first-time nominees who now have extra reason to celebrate.
Jason Segel, for example, is a first-time nominee for his performance in Shrinking, as is his co-star Jessica Williams. After playing two of Game of Thrones‘ most beloved guest stars, Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey are getting their flowers with first-time nominations for The Last of Us. This also marks the first Emmy nominations for both Jessica Chastain and Michael Shannon.
A noteworthy first outside of the acting categories is Andor and Obi-Wan Kenobi‘s nominations in Oustanding Drama and Limited Series, marking the Star Wars franchise’s first-ever nomination in a major category.
