The 77th Primetime Emmys is almost here, and the presenters are finally starting to roll out.
Television Academy announced a list of 39 presenters on Tuesday and will set up previous winners, current nominees and popular celebrities for the ceremony. These presenters will host and comedian Nate Bargatze at the PeaCock Theater on Sunday, September 14.
Several of the announced presenters will draw double services as nominated by this year’s ceremony. It includes “Matlock” star Kathy Bates, who has a chance to become the oldest winner of outstanding principal actress in a drama series. Bates, who this year received his 14th Emmy nomination, took the record of oldest nominated In the category from Angela Lansbury, who was 70 years old when she nabbed her 12th nomination for “Murder, she wrote.” Bates, 77, has a chance to remove Glenn Close, who was 62 years old when she won the 2009 award for her role in “injuries.”
“Studio” stars Ike Barinholtz and Kathryn Hahn – both nominees in the supportive comedygegories – are also among the first wave of presenters. An ongoing gag in the eighth episode of “The Studio” saw Barinholtz the Sal Saperstein character in an inexplicably thanks a number of Golden Globes winners when Seth Rogen’s Matt Remick split for recognition. We can expect that the bit will carry into real life with a Saperstein-call at Emmys, Barinholtz who actually presented an Emmy can give a winner the perfect opportunity.
The triumvirate of “Paradise” nominated – Sterling K. Brown, James Marsden and Julianne Nicholson – will also present Emmys. Nicholson is one of the few actors who has already been recognized at the ceremony, after winning the outstanding guest actress in a Comedy Series Award Saturday night at Creative Arts Emmys for his work with “hacks.” She is one of two double actors this year, along with Catherine O’hara, who was nominated as a guest actress in a drama series (“The Last of Us”) and supportive actress in a comedy series (“The Studio”).
Colman Domingo is among the nominees/presenters, nominated in supportive actors in a comedy series for their work with “The Four Seasons.” This nomination keeps Domingo’s award love to roll, when he got back-to-back best actors nominations on Oscars 2024 and 2025, a Tony nomination for Best Play as producer 2023 and guest actor in a drama series victory at Emmys 2022.
Stephen Colbert, whose late show is nominated for Outstanding Talk Series, will present an award at the ceremony. This comes at an important moment for Colbert, who was told The cancellation of “The Late Show” Just a few days after he went into the air to criticize the parent company Paramount for, as he called it and gave Donald Trump “a large fat bribe“To ensure that the FCC approved by the company’s Skydance merger. The merger has since gone through. As a presenter, Colbert will have another platform for his signature mix of stand-up and comments, this time at the often political price exhibition.
A number of presenters, although not nominated this year, are previously Emmys Royalty. Hiroyuki Sanada and Anna Sawai – who participated in last year’s historic “Shōgun” Emmy’s season as the winner of the main actor and principal actress in a drama series – is among this year’s presenters. Sydney Sweeney, which was twice nominated in 2022 for “Euphoria” and “The White Lotus”, will present an award itself shortly after its American eagle “Big Jeans” ad Went viral. Jennifer Coolidge, a twice winner to support the actress for “The White Lotus”, will present a award for the show’s third season-the first without her.
Other presenters will be at the ceremony to adapt to their own current TV projects. Jenna Ortega, who herself was nominated for an Emmy to “Wednesday” in 2024, will deliver an award less than two weeks after the second half of “Wednesday” season 2. Jew Law and Jason Bateman-as co-star who brothers on Netflix’s “Black Rabbit”-come to present on Emmys (Will present at Emmys just days before their own show on September. Series for “Ozark” 2019), while “Black Rabbit” could pave the way for Law’s first Emmys Nick next year.
