Emmys 2021: 'The Crown,' 'The Mandalorian' lead nominations

Los Angeles: The nominations for the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards were announced Tuesday by father-and-daughter actors Ron Cephas Jones ("This Is Us") and Jasmine Cephas Jones ("Blindspotting"), and TV academy chief executive Frank Scherma.

The Crown and The Mandalorian lead with 24 nominations each, while WandaVision has 23. Ted Lasso, The Handmaid's Tale and Lovecraft Country are among other big nominees.

Actor Cedric Antonio Kyles, better known by his stage name Cedric the Entertainer, will host the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards as the event returns to a live show this year. Organised by CBS and the Television Academy, the ceremony will be held on September 19, according to a press release.

According to ew.com, the Television Academy's Board of Governors recently announced a small but notable rule change this year for the Emmys to be more inclusive of gender-non-conforming individuals:

A nominee or winner of any acting category can request they be recognised with the more gender-neutral title "Performer" on their nomination certificate and Emmy statuette, although the categories themselves relating to Actor and Actress won't change.

The ceremony air on Sunday, September 19.
