Mega-producer Greg Berlanti has been selected to receive this year's Governors Award at the Emmys, the Television Academy announced Thursday. Greg Berlanti, the first person to receive the honor since 2021 (when Debbie Allen was honored), will be recognized for "his significant impact on television and culture through the portrayal of underrepresented people in films and iconic series such as 'Dawson's Creek,' 'Riverdale,' 'All American,' 'The Flight Attendant' and 'You.'"
Berlanti will receive his Governors Award Emmy at the 76th Annual Emmy Awards on Sunday, September 15, at the Peacock Theatre at LA Live in downtown Los Angeles.
