2024 Emmys diversity rises in the acting categories with historic nominations for Lily Gladstone, Selena Gomez, Ayo Edebiri and D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai

Supporting actress (limited) nominees Lily Gladstone from “Under the Bridge” and Kali Reis from “True Detective: Night Country” became the first Indigenous women to be nominated for acting Emmys. Other AAPI representation is seen with nominee Bowen Yang, who landed his third acting nom (fourth overall) for his work on NBC’s long-running sketch series “Saturday Night Live,” and Greta Lee, who picked up her first nod for playing Stella Bak on Apple’s “The Morning Show.” The outstanding narrator category is also comprised of mostly Black artists: Angela Bassett (“Queens”), Morgan Freeman (“Life on our Planet”) and Octavia Spencer (“Lost Women of Highway”).
