Rob Reiner Wins Posthumous Creative Arts Emmy
Reiner’s win was accepted by Wendi McLendon-Covey and set a new 48-year gap record between acting Emmy victories.
- On Sunday, September 6, the late filmmaker Rob Reiner won a posthumous Emmy for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series for his role as Albert Schnurr in FX's The Bear.
- Reiner, who died at 78, was found murdered in his Brentwood, California, home on December 14, 2025, alongside his wife, Michele Singer Reiner; their son Nick Reiner was charged with the crime.
- The 48-year gap between this win and Reiner's 1978 Emmy shatters the record for longest span between acting wins, breaking the 37-year mark previously held by his father, Carl Reiner.
- Presenter Wendi McLendon-Covey accepted the statuette on Reiner's behalf, telling the audience, "We all wish he was here," as the crowd rose in a standing ovation.
- The Creative Arts ceremonies also honored Betty Gilpin and Ernest Harden Jr. in guest acting categories, while the 78th Emmy Awards, hosted by Mariska Hargitay, airs live on NBC on September 14.
