Québec Cinéma presents an annual award for Best Actor (French: Prix Iris de la meilleure interprétation dans un premier rôle masculin) to recognize the best in the Cinema of Quebec. Until 2016, it was known as the Jutra Award for Best Actor in memory of influential Quebec film director Claude Jutra. Following the withdrawal of Jutra's name from the award, the 2016 award was presented under the name Québec Cinéma. The Prix Iris name was announced in October 2016.
