Variety and PBS SoCal KOCE will receive a CINE Golden Eagle Award for their series “Variety Studio: Actors on Actors” at the 60th annual ceremony.

The CINE Golden Eagle Awards for Professional Media pays homage to originality and excellence in storytelling throughout the media industry. The 2017 recipients and finalists were selected by a jury of CINE Golden Eagle Award-winning industry professionals, and feature many of the most acclaimed films, series, and campaigns of the year.

The latest cycle — the fifth season — of one-hour specials spotlighted Tom Hanks, Ryan Reynolds, Natalie Portman, Emma Stone, Andrew Garfield, and other actors.

Nieves, Georg Kallert, Maris Berzins, Diana Nguyen, and Debra Birnbaum; and associate producers Jasmine Abghari and Michelle Merker.
