Catherine O’Hara won a posthumous award for her performance in The Studio at the 2026 Actor Awards on Sunday, March 1. Seth Rogen, her costar in the Emmy-winning comedy who had just won an Actor Award earlier in the ceremony, accepted the award on her behalf and gave a moving speech in tribute to the late star. The speech received a standing ovation from the audience. See the video below.

O’Hara died on Friday, January 30, of a pulmonary embolism, also known as a blood clot in the lungs, with rectal cancer as the underlying cause. She was 71 years old. The Studio Season 2 had just started filming a few weeks prior.
