2020 Emmy Noms Are Out & The List Includes Zendaya, Baby Yoda & Your Boyfriend Paul Mescal
Baby Yoda is officially an Emmy nominee.
On Tuesday (July 28), the Television Academy unveiled its full list of 2020 Emmy noms, with HBO's stunning Watchmen reimagining leading the pack with 26 across acting and directing categories. Some notable first-time nominees have plenty to celebrate about as well. Yes, that includes Baby Yoda — sorry, "The Child" — as Disney+'s debut Star Wars live-action drama The Mandalorian landed a nod for Best Drama Series. Zendaya, too, nabbed her first-ever nomination in the Lead Actress in a Drama Series category for her work on Euphoria.
Meanwhile, returning favourites had plenty to celebrate. The cast of HBO's family lineage dramedy Succession had a strong showing; six of the show's main stars earned a nod, as did the four main stars of beloved Pop TV hit Schitt's Creek.
Elsewhere, Issa Rae and her HBO mainstay Insecure scored in the comedy categories, while the internet's new boyfriend (and potential new real-life boyfriend of Phoebe Bridgers) Paul Mescal for Normal People earned one for Lead Actor in a Limited Series or Movie.
There's plenty more to unpack before the ceremony airs on September 20, so check out the 2020 Emmy nominations below.
