Beloved ‘Happy Days’ Star Finally Earns His First Acting Emmy Nomination at the Age of 71<\/a> originally appeared on Parade<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ron Howard is having one very happy day!<\/p>\n

On July 15, the former child star-turned-director, 71, received his very first acting Emmy nomination for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series for his role in The Studio.<\/p>\n

In the Apple TV+ comedy series, Howard plays a fictionalized version of himself, and hilarity ensues as studio head Matt Remick (Seth Rogen) and his colleagues argue over who should be the one to tell the legendary filmmaker that he needs to cut a scene from his next movie.<\/p>\n

Howard’s performance wasn’t just a hit with the Television Academy, but also with his costars.<\/p>\n

“[He] was so game and so good and really tried so hard,” Rogen, 43, gushed of working with the Happy Days alum in an interview with People<\/a>. “[He] worked really hard on the performance and the role and yeah, he was very impressive.”<\/p>\n

Howard’s daughter, Bryce Dallas Howard, who jokingly acted as her father’s “momager” on The Studio set, was quite amazed too.<\/p>\n

“I was so nervous for him because he hasn’t acted \u2014 he’s done some stuff, like in Arrested Development, he’s done some cameos here and there \u2014 but [this was] like a real part with dialogue, and they’re shooting it all with oners, so you cannot mess up,” she said at a live taping<\/a> of Josh Horowitz’s Happy Sad Confused podcast in New York City on April 14.<\/p>\n

However, “he went and he did the rehearsal, and honestly, I was like, oh my God. He was so good,” the actress, 44, admitted. “He was so on point, and everyone was just sort of baffled by it, frankly.”<\/p>\n

Will it be enough to earn Howard the Emmy, though? Come September, he’ll be going up against last year’s winner, The Bear’s Jon Bernthal, as well as several other The Studio guest stars, including Bryan Cranston, Dave Franco, Anthony Mackie and Martin Scorsese.<\/p>\n
