Vancouver’s Seth Rogen has won an Emmy for best lead actor in a comedy for his series “The Studio.”

Rogen stars in the AppleTV Plus cringe comedy as the frazzled boss of a struggling Hollywood studio, juggling corporate pressures with his dream of making genuinely good movies.

Rogen created, directed and wrote the series with Evan Goldberg.

This year “The Studio” matched the record for a comedy with 23 nominations and already picked up nine Emmys at last weekend’s Creative Arts ceremony.

Rogen was previously nominated best supporting actor in a limited or anthology series for “Pam & Tommy” in 2022, and as an executive producer for “The Boys” in 2021.

The 77th Emmy Awards are being broadcast live from Los Angeles on CTV2.
