Legendary director and actor the late Rob Reiner has received an Emmy trophy about nine months after his passing.

At the 2026 Creative Arts Emmys held on the 6th (local time), Rob Reiner was nominated as a guest in the comedy series category for his role as Albert Schunr in 'The Bear'.

Other nominees in this category included Michael J. Fox, Brett Goldstein, Hamish Linklater, Christopher McDonald, and Connor Story.

Wendy McLendon-Covey and David Alan Grier, who served as presenters, accepted the trophy on behalf of the late Reiner, while the audience gathered at Los Angeles' Peacock Theater paid tribute to him with a prolonged standing ovation.

This nomination marks Reiner's third Emmy win overall. Previously, he had won two Emmys in 1974 and 1978 for his role as Michael 'Meathead' Stivic in 'All in the Family'.

His performance in the Season 4 episode of 'The Bear' titled 'Tonnato' earned him an eighth Emmy nomination in his career, which ultimately led to a win. Season 4 of 'The Bear' is among the final acting projects Reiner completed before his death. He appeared in a total of three episodes as Albert, a restaurant consultant.

Reiner was found deceased alongside his wife, Michelle Singer Reiner, at their Brentwood home in December last year. He was 78 years old.

Their son Nick Reiner (32) has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder in connection with the deaths of his parents and is currently pleading not guilty.
