Cranston nabbed his win for his portrayal of Continental CEO Griffin Mill in Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg's Hollywood comedy The Studio. The Apple TV+ series earned five of the six best guest actor in a comedy nominations, with Cranston beating Anthony Mackie, Dave Franco, Martin Scorsese and Ron Howard - the latter of two who would've scored their first acting Emmy had they won. Jon Bernthal earned the sixth nod in the category for his portrayal of Michael Berzatto in The Bear.

"I love Hacks, I loved playing Dance Mom so much, I want to thank Paul [W. Downs], Jen [Statsky] and Lucia [Aniello] for writing this character for me, but I think none of us saw coming," Nicholson said in her acceptance speech. "I'm so glad to be one of the creative arts baddies," she later added, echoing a chant Maya Rudolph instructed the audience to repeat in her introduction to Saturday night's show. Other nominees in the best guest actress in a comedy category were Jamie Lee Curtis and Olivia Coleman, who were nominated for their roles in The Bear, Cynthia Erivo, who was up for Poker Face and Zoë Kravitz, who received a nod for her appearance on The Studio. The Studio has received a total of 23 Emmy nominations this year, leading the comedy category. Hacks, which won the award for best comedy series in 2024, received 14 nods. The 2025 Creative Arts Emmy Awards are held on Saturday, Sept. 6 and Sunday, Sept. 7 at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles. Check out the full list of winners here.
