Today is the day. Your Emmy ballots are live, and now is the beginning of the final run for the roses, as it were. All voting is done online, with ballots needing to be completed by August 22. It has been a very, very long season and the first since the pandemic began in earnest in early 2020 where campaigning was somewhat back to normal, events were in person and Q&As and receptions were rampant. You can count on that campaigning to keep going right up until the last minute in an Emmy season that was perhaps more content-rich and dense than any in recent memory.

Less than a week ago Deadline staged its latest Contenders event featuring nominees from more than 30 shows, a kind of one-stop-shopping opportunity for voters, as it has been since we started doing these events more than a decade ago. They are designed to intrigue voters, with clips and conversation, to find the time to sit down and watch as many of these nominees as they can in order to make an informed decision.
As part of those panels — which, because of the tight time span between nominations and start of voting, had to be done virtually — we also asked the nominees a few questions that would be used throughout the Contenders day last weekend (the panels are available to watch now). The one that intrigued me, and perhaps most influenced my sense of what shows are front-runners or perhaps poised to stage an upset, was, “What show from this year’s crop – other than your own – would you have liked to work on?”

As a rule, Sydney Sweeney is drawn to characters that are nothing like her. “I find that challenge interesting,” she says. But playing Cassie Howard, the LA teen who wears her emotions on her sleeve in Sam Levinson’s Euphoria was a welcome exception for the 24-year-old. “Cassie is one of the most relatable characters to me, because I search for love and acceptance, and I’m scared of being alone.” Deadline talked to Sweeney about embodying the intensity of her character, showing real depth to Cassie and what makes her character Olivia on Mike White’s black comedy The White Lotus so terrifying.
