Mariska Hargitay made history with her directorial debut, “My Mom Jayne,” winning both the Emmy for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Special and Outstanding Directing in the category — a double triumph for her first feature behind the camera. The heartfelt film explores the life of her late mother, Jayne Mansfield, through intimate family footage and photos. Hargitay dedicated the win to her mom and thanked her team, calling it a deeply personal journey. Competing against acclaimed docs on John Candy, Martin Short, Mel Brooks, and David Attenborough’s nature special, the film stood out as a moving tribute. As she prepares to host the main Primetime Emmys, Hargitay’s wins signal a powerful blend of personal legacy and cinematic vision.
