In episode 3, which came out in April, Howard's character cries when Rogen's studio head character gives him a difficult piece of feedback, resulting in Howard angrily throwing his signature baseball cap at him. After his Emmy nomination, Howard tells PEOPLE, 'Maybe I should be talking to the acting department at CAA … maybe I should be talking to the acting branch.' The Studio earned 23 nominations this year. The series is available to stream on Apple TV+. Read the original article on People

Beloved 'Happy Days' Star Finally Earns His First Acting Emmy Nomination at the Age of 71
Beloved 'Happy Days' Star Finally Earns His First Acting Emmy Nomination at the Age of 71 originally appeared on Parade. Ron Howard is having one very happy day! On July 15, the former child star-turned-director, 71, received his very first acting Emmy nomination for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series for his role in The Studio. In the Apple TV+ comedy series, Howard plays a fictionalized version of himself, and hilarity ensues as studio head Matt Remick (Seth Rogen) and his colleagues argue over who should be the one to tell the legendary filmmaker that he needs to cut a scene from his next movie. Howard's performance wasn't just a hit with the Television Academy, but also with his costars. "[He] was so game and so good and really tried so hard," Rogen, 43, gushed of working with the Happy Days alum in an interview with People. "[He] worked really hard on the performance and the role and yeah, he was very impressive." Howard's daughter, Bryce Dallas Howard, who jokingly acted as her father's "momager" on The Studio set, was quite amazed too. "I was so nervous for him because he hasn't acted — he's done some stuff, like in Arrested Development, he's done some cameos here and there — but [this was] like a real part with dialogue, and they're shooting it all with oners, so you cannot mess up," she said at a live taping of Josh Horowitz's Happy Sad Confused podcast in New York City on April 14. However, "he went and he did the rehearsal, and honestly, I was like, oh my God. He was so good," the actress, 44, admitted. "He was so on point, and everyone was just sort of baffled by it, frankly." 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 Will it be enough to earn Howard the Emmy, though? Come September, he'll be going up against last year's winner, The Bear's Jon Bernthal, as well as several other The Studio guest stars, including Bryan Cranston, Dave Franco, Anthony Mackie and Martin Scorsese. Beloved 'Happy Days' Star Finally Earns His First Acting Emmy Nomination at the Age of 71 first appeared on Parade on Jul 15, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jul 15, 2025, where it first appeared.

Ron Howard Earns His First-Ever Acting Nomination at the 2025 Emmys for Guest Starring Role as Himself in 'The Studio'
The Studio had an impressive showing at the 2025 Emmy Awards nominations The Seth Rogen-led comedy series earned a whopping 23 nominations this year, including six nods in the guest star categories Ron Howard was among the nominees and it marks his first-ever acting nominationThe Studio made a splash amongst the list of nominees for the 2025 Emmy Awards, and even Ron Howard made the list in an acting category. On Tuesday, July 15, Brenda Song and Harvey Guillén announced this year's nominations and the Seth Rogen-helmed Apple TV+ comedy series earned a whopping 23 nominations. Among those are nominations for Rogen himself for outstanding lead actor in a comedy series, as well as his costars Kathryn Hahn and Catherine O'Hara for outstanding supporting actress in a comedy series. Ike Barinholtz also scored a nomination in the outstanding supporting actor in a comedy series category. Howard — who began his career in Hollywood as a child star and famously played Richie Cunningham on Happy Days — earned his first-ever Emmy nomination for acting. His performance in The Studio garnered him a nod for outstanding guest actor in a comedy series. The nomination is the acclaimed director's 14th ever at the Emmys, and he has won three times — for the documentary Jim Henson Idea Man last year, Arrested Development in 2004, and From The Earth To The Moon in 1998. The other guest stars from The Studio joining him in the category are: Dave Franco, Martin Scorsese, Bryan Cranston and Anthony Mackie. Zoë Kravitz also earned a nomination for outstanding guest actress in a comedy series. Mackie, 46, and Howard, 71, overlapped in episode 3 as they worked together on the fictional film Alphabet City, which Franco also "starred" in. During the episode, Howard broke down crying during a meeting with Rogen's studio head Matt Remick over his critique of the film — and things really crashed and burned when Rogen fell into and destroyed a bar cart after Howard threw his signature baseball hat at him in anger. Rogen, who co-created the series with Evan Goldberg, told PEOPLE that the director was "so game and so good and really tried so hard" during his days on set. "[He] worked really hard on the performance and the role and yeah, he was very impressive," he recalled. Howard also brought some of his own ideas to the scenes, Rogen shared. "It was his idea to throw his patented Imagine hat at me, which I thought was a true stroke of genius," Rogen said. "For him to weaponize his trademark look was a really miraculously funny idea."

The 77th Emmy Awards will air live on Sunday, Sept. 14 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on ABC. Read the original article on People
