Emmy Awards statuette got a makeover to mark 75th anniversary
To mark the 75th anniversary of the awards, the Television Academy announced a special enhancement for the prestigious Emmy statuette. To commemorate this milestone, the base of the award, which depicts a female figure with wings holding up a globe-like sphere, will feature an etched number "75." The Academy noted that it drew inspiration from the periodic Halley's Comet, which reappears every 75 years.
Here's everything to know about the star-studded main event
Emmy will return this year on September 18 and is scheduled to commence at 8:00pm ET (5:30am IST on September 19). The 75th edition of the Emmys is produced by Jesse Collins Entertainment, and the Creative Arts Emmys are scheduled for September 9 and 10. With favorites such as Ted Lasso, Succession, and The White Lotus, the competition promises to be fierce.
Meanwhile, will SAG-AFTRA's strike directly impact the Emmys?
As per Deadline, SAG-AFTRA (the Screen Actors Guild) strike will not directly impact the award ceremonies, including the Emmys, as these events are covered by SAG-AFTRA Network Television Code, which does not expire until July 2024. Still, a strike by the union would eventually prevent members from attending, including the actors—who are members of this union—wouldn't be able to cross the picket line.
