Eugene Levy and Dan Levy will team up to host the 76th annual Emmy Awards.
The pair, who both starred on the award-winning comedy Schitt’s Creek together for six seasons from 2015 to 2020, will make history as the first father-son duo to take on the honor of hosting. The news was first revealed on Good Morning America on August 16.
“For two Canadians who won our Emmys in a literal quarantine tent, the idea of being asked to host this year in an actual theater was incentive enough,” they said in a statement via People. “We’re thrilled to be able to raise a glass to this extraordinary season of television and can’t wait to spend the evening with you all.”
This will be the second Emmys Award show held in 2024, as the writers and actors strikes caused the 2023 Primetime Emmy Awards to be pushed to January of this year. Despite taking place in early 2024, the ceremony was still considered the 2023 iteration of the awards show.
“While this year has been marked by significant challenges for our industry and its workforce, there has been an abundance of remarkable programs, extraordinary performances and impactful storytelling,” Television Academy chair Cris Abrego said in a June statement. “Great television relies on the contributions of so many, and we are delighted to have Tony [Hale] and Sheryl [Lee Ralph] help us acknowledge excellence across our field as we embark on a season of tremendous celebration.”
