‘Shrinking' acting Emmy submissions include Jason Segel, Harrison Ford, Jessica Williams, and these 4 guest stars
Apple TV+ will submit 13 cast members from Shrinking Season 2 for Emmy consideration, Gold Derby has learned. Jason Segel will submit in Best Comedy Actor for playing Jimmy Laird, an out-of-the-box therapist who's still grieving the death of his wife. Segel received his first Emmy nomination in 2023 for the first season of this comedy series, which he cocreated with Bill Lawrence and Brett Goldstein. More from GoldDerby 'Fallout' gets early Season 3 renewal ahead of Season 2 premiere in December 'Barbershop' TV Series ordered at Prime Video with Jermaine Fowler starring Netflix sets premiere date for Lena Dunham's new series, Jude Law and Andrew Garfield to play Siegfried & Roy, and more of today's top news stories Competing in Best Comedy Supporting Actor are Harrison Ford as experienced therapist Paul Rhoades; Brett Goldstein as Louis Winston, the man who accidentally killed Jimmy's wife; Ted McGinley as Derek, Jimmy's next-door neighbor; Luke Tennie as Sean, Jimmy's patient; and Michael Urie as Brian, Jimmy's lawyer friend. Ford, McGinley, Tennie, and Urie are all seeking their first Emmy nominations, while Goldstein has already won this category twice for Ted Lasso (2021 and 2022). As for Best Comedy Supporting Actress, the three performers being entered for consideration are Lukita Maxwell as Alice, Jimmy's daughter; Christa Miller as Liz, Jimmy's neighbor; and Jessica Williams as Gaby Evans, Jimmy's co-therapist and his deceased wife's friend. Williams was nominated in this category for Season 1 of Shrinking, while Miller earned a Best Music Supervision Emmy nom in 2023 for Ted Lasso. SEE'Shrinking' star Ted McGinley has been 'brought to tears' by the response to his performance: 'It's been an amazing journey' The comedy series is also submitting four guest stars on this year's Emmy ballot: Damon Wayans Jr. as Derrick No. 2, Gaby's new love interest; Kelly Bishop as Susan, Paul's ex-wife; Heidi Gardner as Grace, Jimmy's patient who gets into legal trouble; and Cobie Smulders as Sofi, a potential love interest for Jimmy. While Goldstein also received guest star billing, he appeared in more than 50 percent of the episodes, so he's not eligible for the guest race. Per the current Gold Derby odds, Shrinking is competitive in several top categories, raking sixth among comedy series, with Segel sixth among leading actors, Ford second among supporting actors, and Williams fourth among supporting actresses. If the predictions hold, this would be Ford's first Emmy nomination. Below is the list of Shrinking's acting submissions for the 2025 Emmys. Note: These entries are being submitted by Apple TV+; additional actors from the series may still choose to submit independently.
