As a seasoned television critic with decades of experience under my belt, I must say that this year’s Emmy nominations have left me utterly astonished and thrilled! With a diverse range of exceptional series and performances, it seems that 2024 is shaping up to be an unparalleled year for small-screen storytelling.


At the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards held at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles on Sunday, Idris Elba was seen cuddling with his stunning spouse, Sabrina Elba, on the red carpet.

In a shining display at the glamorous gathering this year, the 51-year-old British actor and his 34-year-old model spouse, who exchanged vows in 2019, seemed more joyful than ever as they struck their poses for the cameras.

At the awards ceremony for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, Idris, nominated for his role in Hijack, looked sharp and stylish in a well-tailored grey suit.

Simultaneously, Sabrina captivated onlookers wearing a white gown featuring a deep-cut halter neck adorned with black mesh, and a similar pattern along its side.

She flaunted her striking physique in an impressive outfit, completing the look with tall heels and sparkling earrings.

With her hair styled in relaxed curls, Sabrina beamed her radiant smile while taking pictures alongside the prominent figure from Luther.

Idris and Sabrina dazzled as they created a whirlwind of charm on the red carpet before the glamorous awards show.

In September 2017, the pair debuted publicly for the very first time at the premiere of Molly’s Game during the Toronto International Film Festival.

In a few days, they drew attention at the debut of The Mountain Between Us, a movie that eventually united them.

Contrary to his previous statement that he wouldn’t remarry, Idris proposed publicly to Sabrina during a movie premiere and later wed in an extravagant three-day event in Morocco in 2019, as People magazine detailed.

As a devoted admirer of exceptional TV productions, I’m excitedly looking forward to the upcoming 76th Primetime Emmy Awards, taking place at the Peacock Theater in sunny Los Angeles, California on the 15th of September, Sunday. This prestigious event will celebrate the crème de la crème of television!

The event is being co-hosted by Eugene Levy and his son, Dan Levy, marking a historic first for a father-son team to host the show together.

2020 saw the cast winning their individual Emmy Awards, acknowledging their exceptional work on the popular sitcom Schitt’s Creek, a production they both created and acted in over six seasons.

In a statement made to Vanity Fair last month, the two Canadian winners of our Emmys, who had previously won inside a quarantine tent, were thrilled at the prospect of hosting this year in an actual theater, using it as motivation for accepting the role.

The duo expressed their excitement, saying, “It’s fantastic to celebrate this exceptional TV season with everyone, and we can hardly wait to spend the evening together!

This year’s ceremony will take place less than a year after the 75th edition of the show.

The event was postponed from its original scheduled date in September 2023, pushed back to January, as a result of the writers’ and actors’ strikes.

The trio consisting of Emmy Award winners Jesse Collins and Dionne Harmon, alongside Emmy nominee Jeannae Rouzan-Clay from Jesse Collins Entertainment, will once again take on their role as executive producers for the 76th Emmy Awards ceremony.

This marks their second consecutive year as producers of television’s biggest night.

The 2024 Emmys ceremony airs live on Sunday, Sept. 15, at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT. 

It will also be available to stream the next day on Hulu.
