From nominations to star presenters, everything you need to know about Emmys 2025

It is officially time for the much-awaited Emmy Awards 2025! The 77th Emmys is set to return to the iconic Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles this weekend, and the red carpet will be rolled for the biggest names in international cinema.

Last year, a majority of the awards were taken home by Baby Reindeer, The Bear and Shogun. While Baby Reindeer won the Emmy in the Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series category, Shogun was declared the Outstanding Drama Series. With the anticipation running high for Emmys 2025, Apple TV's Severance seems to be a favourite among global viewers and is expected to bag a bunch of awards. Netflix's Adolescence and Apple TV's The Studio, too, are not far behind in the race, and might emerge as the major winners for the night.

With the ceremony just around the corner, here is everything you need to know about it before the winners are finally announced.

The 77th Primetime Emmy Awards are scheduled to take place on Sunday, September 14, at 8:00 p.m. PT, which is September 15, 5:30 a.m. IST.

The Emmys will be broadcast by CBS on Paramount+ and can be viewed on JioHotstar in India
