The 75th Emmy Awards event which was supposed to take place on September 18, 2023, has now been postponed to January 15, 2024, according to reports. The agency in a joint statement said that due to labour issues with major studios, Hollywood writers and performers are on strike leading to the deferring of the awards.
Meanwhile, back in July, the nominations for the highest honours in television were announced. The news came just before the dual work stoppage was announced.Hollywood actors in June joined writers for film and television who have been picketing since May as a result of the failure of talks between the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and major studios.
