2024 Emmy Awards Full List: $250M budget drama ‘Shogun’ packs 18 wins
The 2024 Primetime Emmy Awards marked a decisive triumph for FX’s historical epic Shogun, which swept an unprecedented 18 categories, cementing its status as a powerhouse in prestige television.
The high-budget drama, reportedly costing $250 million to produce, claimed the coveted Outstanding Drama Series award, fending off formidable competitors such as The Crown, Fallout, and The Morning Show.
Consisting of a total of ten episodes, Shogun is a massive television production in the vein of Game of Thrones, marking a new era of prestige TV.
With its nearly exclusive Japanese cast, the series showcased a large-scale narrative that would have been unthinkable a decade ago.
The $250 million budget makes it the most expensive international series ever produced for FX, an investment that paid off with widespread critical acclaim.
The presence of world-class star Hiroyuki Sanada, who also served as a behind-the-scenes producer, further elevated the production, while his co-starring role earned him Lead Actor in a Drama Series.
Key Wins:
Outstanding Drama Series: Shogun Lead Actress in a Drama Series: Anna Sawai, Shogun Lead Actor in a Drama Series: Hiroyuki Sanada, Shogun Supporting Actor in a Drama Series: Billy Crudup, The Morning Show
The show’s grandeur, coupled with the richly detailed storytelling and cultural representation, mirrors the scope of productions like Game of Thrones, ushering in an era of ambitious global storytelling for television.
Meanwhile, the Comedy Series categories were highlighted by wins for FX’s culinary dramedy The Bear, with Jeremy Allen White taking Lead Actor in a Comedy Series and Ebon Moss-Bachrach winning Supporting Actor. Hacks maintained its hold on the Outstanding Comedy Series category, with Jean Smart winning Lead Actress for her portrayal of an aging Las Vegas comedian.
