2 Mar - Catherine O'Hara has been named Best Actress at the SAG-AFTRA's Actor Awards in the TV category posthumously.

The actress, who passed away in January, won for her performance as former studio chief-turned-producer Patty Leigh in Apple TV's "The Studio," in addition to winning as part of the cast in the Ensemble category.

The announcement of her win had everybody giving a standing ovation, while the accolade was accepted on the O'Hara family behalf by her co-star Seth Rogan.

He expressed, "I know she would have been honoured to receive this award from her fellow performers, who I know she respected so much. She was such big fans of all of yours."

Rogen said that he has been reflecting on the time he was fortunate enough to spend with her, adding that he was in awe of her ability to be generous and kind and gracious.

"I guess I'll just leave you with this. If you have people in your lives that don't know her work, if they're kids in your lives, or just people who are out of touch or stupid or something, just show them O'Hara dancing to Harry Belafonte in 'Beetlejuice.' Show them O'Hara hurting her knee in 'Best in Show' and doing that amazing thing where she hobbles around, and tell the people as they are laughing, that that's Catherine O'Hara - and we were lucky that we got to live in a world where she so generally shared her talents with us," he expressed.
