The late Catherine O'Hara has been honored with a final award for her brilliant performance in the comedy series "The Studio."
The late Hollywood icon Catherine O’Hara was honored with a posthumous Actors Award on Sunday night.
The legendary actress was recognized for her outstanding performance as Patty Leigh in the hit comedy series, The Studio.
As her name was announced, the room erupted in a standing ovation a fitting tribute to a star who spent decades making the world laugh.
Her co-star, Seth Rogen, who also picked up an award for the same show, stepped onto the stage to accept the trophy on her behalf.
Rogen shared a touching and funny story about working with the veteran thespian. He recalled how she would always send sharp notes on the scripts before filming, and without fail, her suggestions always made the scenes better. He noted that receiving this honor from her colleagues would have meant the world to her.
The news is a bittersweet reminder of O'Hara's passing in January at the age of 71. It was reported that she suffered a pulmonary embolism while also battling rectal cancer.
Since her death, many of her famous friends, including comedy legends Martin Short and Steve Martin, have publicly shared their love and respect for her legacy.
For fans of the actress, this performance marks the final curtain call. Reports indicate that O’Hara did not film any scenes for the second season of The Studio, making this award-winning role the very last of her storied career.
She leaves behind a void in the industry that will be very difficult to fill.
