Full text

The Boys season 5 didn't snag any Emmy nominations in the acting department this year, despite submitting a whopping 28 of its actors.

Per Gold Derby , the hit Prime Video show submitted lead actors Antony Starr, Karl Urban, Jack Quaid, Erin Moriarty, and Karen Fukuhara, as well as supporting actors Laz Alonso, Tomer Capone, Chace Crawford, Jessie T. Usher, Nathan Mitchell, Daveed Diggs, Jensen Ackles, Susan Heyward, Colby Minifie, and Valorie Curry.

But that's not all: guest stars Jared Padalecki, Misha Collins, Elisabeth Shue, Paul Reiser, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Seth Rogen, Kumail Nanjiani, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Will Forte, John Noble, Cameron Crovetti, Giancarlo Esposito, and Samuel L. Jackson (who provided the voice for a shark named Xander) were submitted as well.

The show did, however, earn five Emmy nominations overall: Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics for Oh Father's song 'Raise Him Up,' Best Fantasy/Sci-Fi costumes, Outstanding Sound Editing, Outstanding Music Supervision, and Outstanding Stunt Coordination. The Boys season 5 joins non-satirical superhero shows Peacemaker season 2 and Spider-Noir in the Outstanding Stunts category.

Though this may be the end for the main cast of The Boys, we still have two spin-offs on the way: The Boys: Mexico and Vought Rising.
