- Charlie's Angels stars Kate Jackson, Jaclyn Smith, and Cheryl Ladd will reunite on the Emmys stage to mark the 1976 series' 50th anniversary; Jackson and Smith were original Angels alongside the late Farrah Fawcett, with Ladd succeeding Fawcett after Season 1.
- Sarah Michelle Gellar and David Boreanaz are set for a Buffy the Vampire Slayer reunion as the show heads into its 30th anniversary; Boreanaz is also promoting his new NBC series The Rockford Files.
- Dan Levy, Annie Murphy, and Macaulay Culkin are expected to appear together in a tribute to the late Catherine O'Hara, O'Hara's Home Alone co-star and fellow Emmy-winning Schitt's Creek alum.
- David Harbour and Linda Cardellini will present after winning Supporting Actor and Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series on Sunday in categories that were moved out of the main telecast this year.
- Zendaya (two-time Emmy winner for Euphoria), Sally Field (nominee for Remarkably Bright Creatures), Florence Pugh (upcoming Netflix limited series East of Eden), and Alan Cumming (fresh off his Emmy win Saturday for hosting The Traitors) round out the first presenter batch.
- The ceremony is stacked with NBCUniversal talent — Boreanaz, Peter Krause (Line of Fire), Amy Poehler (Dig), Keke Palmer (The 'Burbs), and SNL's Marcello Hernández — alongside host Mariska Hargitay, with Jesse Collins, Dionne Harmon, and Jeannae Rouzan-Clay executive producing.
Why it matters: The 78th Emmys, airing September 14 on NBC and Peacock, doubles as a showcase for the network's own current and upcoming slate — at least six presenters have NBC or Peacock projects to plug, from Boreanaz's Rockford Files to Poehler's Dig to Cumming's Traitors — meaning the ceremony's biggest star turns are also NBC's most expensive promo slots of the fall.
