Emmys: Lead Actress (Comedy) — Will Jean Smart Take Home Her Sixth Career Statuette for ‘Hacks?’


2024 Emmys Lead Actress Comedy predictions include Jean Smart, Quinta Brunson, Ayo Edebiri, Selena Gomez, Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph.

Commentary (April 11, 2024): After facing two years of oversight from the Television Academy, superstar Selena Gomez stands her strongest chance yet of securing her first acting nomination for her role as the sharp-witted Mabel in Hulu’s “Only Murders in the Building.” Her campaign shift has already garnered Golden Globe and SAG awards, setting the stage for a showdown with last year’s Emmy winner, Quinta Brunson from “Abbott Elementary,” and the seasoned Jean Smart from “Hacks.” Other comedy stalwarts in the mix include Kristen Wiig for “Palm Royale,” potentially joining her “Saturday Night Live” alumna, and Apple TV+ counterpart Maya Rudolph, who is in the running for “Loot.”
