On 14 September, the 2026 Emmy Awards take over the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles, with actress Marika Hargitay at the helm to celebrate some of the biggest and best shows in America.
The Pitt, Hacks and Apple TV’s Widow’s Bay lead the nominations this year, with Wonder Man’s Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Zendaya, and Ayo Edebiri for The Bear all up for individual gongs.
Regardless of whether or not the celebrities, casting directors, and cinematographers walk away with a coveted Emmy statuette on the evening, they will all return to their digs with a free gift bag - worth a whopping $30,000, according to The Sun.
