‘The Bear' serves up 13 Emmy nominations and 1 surprising snub
There may be some Emmys on the menu once again for The Bear. The FX comedy series closed out nomination morning with 13 nods, including Best Comedy Series and Best Comedy Actor for Jeremy Allen White. Nominated this time around for 2024's Season 3, The Bear is following up a strong second season, for which it earned 23 nominations, winning 11 total at last September's ceremony. Despite the impressive showing, the series was ultimately upset by HBO Max's Hacks, which claimed the top prize for Best Comedy Series after The Bear had won the year before. More from Gold Derby All the snubs (Selena Gomez, 'Squid Game') and surprises (Uzo Aduba, 'Survivor') at the 2025 Emmy nominations Here's how 'The Studio' scored a record 23 Emmy nominations The morning wasn't without its misses, however, as The Bear failed to secure a nomination for Best Comedy Writing after previously winning the category. Keep reading for a complete rundown of The Bear's nominations and snubs at the 2025 Emmy Awards nomination. The Bear earned its third nomination in a row for Best Comedy Series, an award it previously won in its first season. It was nominated alongside reigning winner Hacks, The Studio, Only Murders in the Building, Shrinking, What We Do in the Shadows, Nobody Wants This, and Abbott Elementary. The Emmys said, "Yes, chef" for a third time, nominating Jeremy Allen White once again in the Comedy Lead Actor category. The two-time winner is joined by Seth Rogen, Martin Short, Adam Brody, and Jason Segel. Ayo Edebiri will once again square off against Jean Smart for Comedy Lead Actress. This is Edebiri's third time being nominated for playing sous-chef Sydney Adamu. Quinta Brunson, Kristen Bell, and Uzo Aduba round out the category. July may end up being a banner month for Ebon Moss-Bachrach. Not only will he star in The Fantastic Four: First Steps, but he's earned his third nomination for Comedy Supporting Actor — a category he has won twice. Last year, Liza Colón-Zayas joined the ranks of her Emmy-winning costars after taking home Best Comedy Supporting Actress. This year, she has scored another nomination in the category, along with Hannah Einbinder, Catherine O'Hara, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Katheryn Hahn, Jessica Williams, and Janelle James. Despite his character being dead at the start of the series, Jon Bernthal has made a habit of scoring a nomination for his work as Carmy's older brother, Michael, on The Bear. This year, he earned his third nomination for the part (he won once) and is honored alongside The Studio's Bryan Cranston, Martin Scorsese, Ron Howard, Anthony Mackie, and Dave Franco. It must run in the family! After winning Comedy Guest Actress last year, Oscar winner Jamie Lee Curtis is once again on the short list for playing Carmy's mom. Joining her is fellow Bear guest actress and Oscar winner Olivia Colman. They're nominated with Julianne Nicholson, Cythia Erivo, Robby Hoffman, and Zoë Kravitz. After two previous nominations and a win for its first season, The Bear didn't make the cut in Best Comedy Writing, falling short of shows such as The Rehearsal, Somebody Somewhere, What We Do in the Shadows, The Studio, Hacks, and Abbott Elementary. Not only did Edebiri make the cut for Actress, but she's double-nominated for her work behind the camera on the episode "Napkins." The Bear also earned nominations for casting, editing, sound editing, and sound mixing.

Watch: KJ Apa, Madelyn Cline star in rom-com 'Map That Leads to You'
July 15 (UPI) -- Outer Banks actress Madelyn Cline and Riverdale actor KJ Apa star in the new romantic comedy The Map That Leads to You. Prime Video released a trailer for the film, which arrives on the streamer Aug. 20, Tuesday. The teaser shows Jack (Apa) and Heather (Cline) meeting on a train and connecting instantly. Heather is traveling Europe with her friends, while Jack allows his grandfather's journal to dictate his next destination. His go-with-the-flow persona "kind of stresses" out Heather, who declares that she prefers "to know what's next." "As secrets and life choices test their bond, her path changes forever," an official synopsis reads. The film takes its inspiration from the J.P. Monniger novel and is directed by Lasse Hallstrom, well known for working on Dear John. Madison Thompson, Sofia Wylie and Orlando Norman also star.
