Arcane Season 2 Scoops Up Early Emmy Wins
Fans of the popular Netflix animated series Arcane, based on Riot Games' League of Legends universe, have reason to celebrate. The second season of Arcane has already begun collecting prestigious awards, earning multiple Emmys in preliminary categories ahead of the main ceremony.
The Emmy Awards, which honor excellence in television, are presented in several stages. This past Sunday, the Creative Arts Emmy Awards ceremony took place, distributing accolades in categories such as Outstanding Animated Program and Outstanding Sound Editing. A total of 47 prizes were awarded during this event.
Leading the pack in overall wins was Apple's series "The Studio," which took home an impressive nine awards. Close behind was "The Penguin," starring Colin Farrell, with eight wins. The 50th season of "Saturday Night Live" also performed strongly, securing seven awards. Other notable winners included the satirical program "The Daily Show" for Best Short-Form Comedy, Drama, or Variety Series, and the thriller "Rebel Ridge" for Best Television Movie. Season 2 of "House of the Dragon," "Andor," "The Boys," and "Heartstopper" were also among the night's victors.
For gamers, the highlight of the evening was undoubtedly Arcane Season 2's success. The beloved League of Legends adaptation won the Emmy for Outstanding Animated Program thanks to its concluding episode, "The Dirt Under Your Nails." Additionally, the series was recognized for Outstanding Sound Editing for an Animated Program. Arcane also shared an award in the Individual Achievement in Animation category, alongside "Love, Death & Robots."
These early wins signal strong critical reception for Arcane's second season, building on the success of its highly acclaimed first season. While the main Emmy Awards ceremony is scheduled for September 14th, where shows like "Severance" (with 27 nominations) and the second season of "The Last of Us" are expected to compete for major honors, Arcane's performance in these creative categories solidifies its standing as a top-tier animated production. For fans, these awards are a testament to the series' continued quality in storytelling, visuals, and audio design, further raising anticipation for its full release.
