Nominations for the 2021 Emmy Awards are here.

On Tuesday, the Television Academy revealed the list of nominees for the upcoming Emmy Awards. Its usual contenders, Netflix’s “The Crown” and Hulu’s “The Handmaid’s Tale,” lead the nominations, with plenty of its cast members earning nods for their respective performances, including newcomer Emma Corrin for her role as Princess Diana in “The Crown.” Both series were also nominated for the Outstanding Drama Series category.
