She Submitted Herself for an Emmy. Now She's a Nominee

Allen, Kober and Anderson earned recognition after self-submitting for guest acting bids that led to three of the show’s 13 Emmy nominations.

  • On Wednesday, actors Brittany Allen and Jeff Kober secured Emmy nominations for 'The Pitt' after independently submitting their performances to the Television Academy.
  • HBO excluded them from its official slate of 14 submitted actors, citing strategic limits; Allen then paid a $225 fee to pursue individual consideration.
  • Allen portrayed terminal cancer patient Roxie Hamler, while Kober played motorcycle mechanic Duke Evans; Tal Anderson also earned a nomination for her role as Becca King.
  • Calling the nomination 'a platform,' Allen said she felt validated advocating for her work, while Kober expressed pride in recognition for personally meaningful performance.
  • Winners will be announced September 14 at the 78th-annual Emmy Awards, following a record year where 'The Pitt' earned 25 total nominations from the Television Academy.
