The 2018 Emmy award nominations have been announced by Ryan Eggold and Samira Wiley at the Saban Media Center in Los Angeles. Leading the pack are both Game Of Thrones and Westworld, which scored 22 and 21 nominations respectively. The Handmaid’s Tale, which airs on streaming service Hulu Stateside and on Channel 4 in the UK, also scored 21 nominations.
Netflix scored 112 nominations across all of the categories, including 13 for its flagship show The Crown, which had its second season air in the past year. The show had major nominations in all of the acting categories, including nods for Claire Foy, Matt Smith, Vanessa Kirby and Matthew Goode.
Its creator Peter Morgan, still reeling from Wednesday night’s English defeat in the World Cup told Deadline, “We’re beyond thrilled to have been honoured with these nominations by the Academy, and especially delighted that Claire, Matt, Vanessa, and Matthew have been recognized for their extraordinary performances. We’re all still in mourning after last night’s World Cup defeat, but I know this news will go some way to restoring our spirits.”
The 70th Primetime Emmy Awards will be held on Monday, Sept. 17, at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. Comedians Michael Che and Colin Jost will host.
