Scorsese Gets First Emmy Acting Nomination

Martin Scorsese, 82, has received his first-ever Primetime Emmy nomination for acting, recognized for his guest appearance as himself in the Apple TV+ satire The Studio. His cameo, which was written specifically for him, features a comedic wild movie pitch about Jonestown and has contributed to the show's acclaim. This is Scorsese's first on-screen performance nomination, adding to his previous Emmy and Oscar wins for directing and producing. His emotional reaction was shared by his daughter Francesca on Instagram. Scorsese is nominated alongside Jon Bernthal (for The Bear), Bryan Cranston, Dave Franco, Ron Howard, and Anthony Mackie. The 77th Primetime Emmy Awards will take place on September 14 in Los Angeles.
