Posthumous Emmy Nom For ‘The Bear’
Published
The late and great Rob Reiner is up for a new award … he’s among the nominees for this year’s Emmys … getting a posthumous nomination for his work in “The Bear.”
Rob played Albert Schnur in Season 4 of the hit FX series … appearing in 3 episodes in one of his last roles as an actor … a franchiser mentoring Edwin Lee Gibson‘s Ebraheim as he tries to expand The Original Beef sandwich walk-up restaurant.
While Season 5 of “The Bear” just aired … Season 4 is what is eligible for Emmy noms for this award cycle, and now Rob is in the running for some hardware.
Season 5 includes a phone conversation with Rob’s character that does not feature him in the scene … but pays homage to the actor.
Rob died on December 14 alongside his wife, Michele … the couple was allegedly murdered by their son Nick Reiner at their home in Brentwood.
Nick currently awaits a trial date … but he will be in court Sept. 15 to determine when a preliminary hearing will occur.
In a strange twist, the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony will be held Sept. 14 … one day before Nick is due in court.
