Emmys Nominations Snubs: ‘Squid Game' Shut Out, ‘Handmaid's Tale' Only Lands One Nod — Uzo Aduba Surprises
The 2025 Emmy Awards failed to recognize a number of longtime favorites with nominations, with past winners Squid Game, Elisabeth Moss, Jon Hamm, Ted Danson and past nominees Yellowjackets and Selena Gomez not nominated this year. Squid Game, which won six Emmys including the top prize of best drama actor for Lee Jung-jae for its first season in 2022, saw its second season completely absent from this year's nominations. The hit Netflix series' third and final season will be eligible for next year's awards. More from The Hollywood Reporter Bela Bajaria on Which Emmy Nominee She Texted First and One Giant "Disappointment" of a Snub 'The White Lotus' Checks Into the 2025 Emmy Noms With 23, Ties With 'The Studio' Apple's Matt Cherniss on Record Emmy Haul and 'Studio' Breakthrough: "Great All the Way Around" Similarly, The Handmaid's Tale was once so adored by Emmy voters that it received multiple nominations in 2019 solely off of hanging episodes. The adaptation of Margaret Atwood's best-selling novel of the same name, which won best drama series for its first season in 2017, only scored one nomination for Cherry Jones' guest role, leaving out the rest of its acclaimed cast, including star Moss, who also could have scored a directing nod. Yellowjackets landed 10 nominations for its first two seasons but zero for its third, recently wrapped season. And Jon Hamm, a perennial nominee for Mad Men before his long-awaited victory in 2015, didn't make it back into the nominations fold for his first series starring role since Mad Men in Your Friends & Neighbors, which was only nominated for its theme song. Also shut out this year were A Man on the Inside (including its star and past Emmy winner Ted Danson); Ellen Pompeo for her starring role in Good American Family, which failed to receive any nominations; and acclaimed series Running Point, St. Denis Medical and Taylor Sheridan's Landman. Surprising omissions from the acting categories included Andor star Diego Luna, not included among the show's 14 nominations; Selena Gomez, not nominated for her starring role in Only Murders in the Building after making the cut in the acting category last year; seven-time Emmy winner (and Oscar winner) Allison Janney, not nominated for her role as Vice President Grace Penn in season two of The Diplomat; Day of the Jackal star Eddie Redmayne; the Mountainhead actors, who were not nominated despite the Emmys' past support of Succession writer-director Jesse Armstrong (the film itself was nominated for best TV movie); the handful of White Lotus actors not nominated including Patrick Schwarzenegger, Sam Nivola, Michelle Monaghan and Leslie Bibb; The Studio standout Chase Sui Wonders, not nominated despite the show's 23 nominations; The Penguin's Rhenzy Feliz; Interview With the Vampire actor Jacob Anderson; and Monsters' Nicholas Alexander Chavez. In terms of specific categories, the talk series category's reduction to only three nomination slots left out hopefuls like Late Night With Seth Meyers, Hot Ones and Everybody's Live With John Mulaney. And Meyers and Jamie Foxx missed out on nods for their stand-up specials, respectively Dad Man Walking and What Had Happened Was, with Foxx's medical emergency serving as the subject of his Netflix special. In terms of surprises, Meghann Fahy was a somewhat unexpected inclusion in the best actress in a limited series category for her role in Sirens, which was left out of the series and other acting categories, as was Uzo Aduba's best actress in a comedy series nod for her starring role in The Residence. While Aduba's performance was acclaimed, the show's cancellation after just one season makes her nomination somewhat surprising. Meanwhile, Hulu's Paradise may have landed more nominations in top categories than awards experts predicted. And Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino's Étoile landed two nominations despite distributor Prime Video revealing before Emmy nominations voting began that it wouldn't proceed with the previously ordered second season.

Pixar Heads to the Forest in Adorable Trailer for Its New Bear Adventure 'Hoppers'
NEED TO KNOW Pixar released the first trailer for its new movie Hoppers on Wednesday, July 16 The movie follows a young woman named Mabel who uses newly-created technology to import her mind into a robotic beaver, enabling her to communicate with the animal kingdom Piper Curda, Bobby Moynihan and Jon Hamm star in the movie's voice cast; the film is in theaters March 6, 2026Pixar is unveiling its next movie! On Wednesday, July 16, the legendary animation studio released the first trailer for its new animal-themed movie Hoppers, which introduces audiences to Mabel, a young woman voiced by Piper Curda (May December, Matlock), who is given access to newly created technology by scientists at the fictional Beaverton University that allows humans to step inside the mind of an animal. When Mabel steps inside the mind of a robotic beaver that the scientists have created for her, she ventures out into the wild for the first time with an entirely new perspective on the animal kingdom and has an alarming meeting with another beaver and a bear who threatens to eat the poor creature — only to learn that Mabel has upset "the natural order" of the wild. "In 'Hoppers,' the question we're answering is: 'What if we could understand and communicate with the animal world?'' the movie's director, Daniel Chong, said in a statement about the trailer's release. 'Our main character, Mabel, gets to discover the animal kingdom as an animal, which can be weird and often hilarious. Mabel undercover in the animal world leads to a wild, roller coaster ride of a movie, with all the heart you expect from a classic Pixar film. It's going to be so much fun to watch in the theater; I can't wait for everyone to see it.' An official synopsis for Hoppers reads that "scientists have discovered how to 'hop' human consciousness into lifelike robotic animals, allowing people to communicate with animals as animals!" "Using the new technology, Mabel will uncover mysteries within the animal world that are beyond anything she could have imagined," the synopsis adds.

And you will probably giggle heartily. Watch it below. 'Hoppers' takes place in a world where a fringe scientific group has created a technology that allows humans to 'hop' into robotic animals, which allows for them to interact with other creatures. Mabel Tanaka (Piper Curda) volunteers to undergo the process, and she hops into the body of a beaver. She gets to know the leader of the pond, a beaver named King George (Bobby Moynihan) and attempts to thwart the efforts of a greedy mayor named Mayor Jerry (Jon Hamm).

Collectors can fight to pay £7m for a Birkin – but the ‘it' handbag is no longer cool
The news that Jane Birkin's original Hermès bag has sold for a record-breaking €8.6m (£7.4m) at auction will no doubt cause some jaws to drop to the floor. However, perhaps it should not surprise – this is a bag design that is often linked to eyewatering amounts of money. Forty years on from the prototype, it's now less a (very expensive) symbol of style and elegance, and more a way to signal you have a lot of money and you would like everyone to know that. A Birkin has always been expensive – about $10,000 (£7,400), according to the Guardian last year – but the complicating factor is demand. As was reported, two California residents sued Hermès for a practice known as 'tying', which means customers are expected to pre-spend a sufficient amount on other items, such as homewares or jewellery – some say up to $30,000 – before they are even put on the waiting list for a Birkin. Therefore, wearing one on your arm – to those in the know – shows you have the disposable income that not only means you can buy the bag, but also go through with this practice in the first place. The TV show Your Friends & Neighbours – in which Jon Hamm stars as a banker who loses his job and resorts to stealing from his wealthy friends to keep up his lifestyle – alludes to this in an episode where Hamm's character attempts to steal a Birkin from an alarmed table of the bags in a luxurious closet. In a montage explaining the lore of the handbag, he comments 'there is no more obnoxious or coveted status symbol than the Hermès Birkin'. It's hard not to agree. With this culture around the bag, it has lost its fashion appeal. See Beyoncé's lyric in her 2022 track Summer Renaissance, which replaces the Birkin with the more affordable and fashionable Telfar shopping bag, one so popular in Brooklyn that it's sometimes called the 'Bushwick Birkin'. 'This Telfar bag imported,' she sings. 'Birkins? Them shit's in storage.' The Birkin is now a favourite of glossy and put-together women. Victoria Beckham is said to have more than 100, and Kylie Jenner also collects them (Singaporean socialite Jamie Chua apparently has the biggest collection). For the Sotheby's auction, it was rumoured that representatives of Lauren Sanchez and Kris Jenner were on the phone attempting to bid, although the bag eventually went to a collector in Japan. An article in Vogue revealed who was in the room: collectors with an eye on the value of this item rather than someone wanting to use it as a receptacle. 'I've been telling people to invest in Hermès bags for years!' comments Sara Abou-Khalil, a client of Sotheby's who also collects contemporary art. All of this contrasts to the bag's beginnings. Jane Birkin was an icon of bohemianism who campaigned for abortion rights and against the far right and originally donated her bag to an auction to raise money for an Aids charity in 1994. Loved for her style, Birkin was gorgeous and chic but she was also scruffy, with wild hair and clothes that didn't always appear to be completely ironed. The original bag shows Birkin's approach to the design during the nine years she owned it – it's lived-in: scuffed, with marks from the stickers that she regularly put on it, for organisations such as Unicef. It's this part of the bag's life that remains charming – and influential. A TV clip of her showing what was inside her bag in 1988 is a favourite on TikTok, with a pile of papers, notebooks, pens, mascara and more emerging. The way she decorated her bag is so loved that it inspired the 'Birkinifying your bag' trend last year, where people added trinkets and charms. Arguably, this was the prelude to the Labubu craze, with the critters becoming the prized object to have hanging on any bag in 2025. The love of Labubus is already going the way of the Birkin – they retail for about £21, but sell for a lot more: a human-sized doll sold at auction last month for £127,000. The lesson? Whether it's a monster with spiky teeth or a battered bag with old stickers, fashion will always find a way to get people to spend a lot of money on obnoxious and coveted status symbols. But who knows? Maybe the buyer is a fan of Birkinifying and they'll soon be walking around Japan with a bag draped in charms, with a Free Tibet sticker on its £7m leather.
