The Studio
(Apple TV)
Premieres March 26, 2025
SETH ROGEN and creative partner Evan Goldberg took the cinematic comedy scene by storm in 2007 with Superbad, a screenplay based on their own high school experiences in Vancouver. Seven years later, their political satire The Interview, about a bungled assassination attempt on North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, had its theatrical release scuttled due to pressures from North Korea accompanied by a hacking of Sony Pictures — and Rogen became seen as a less bankable star. Clearly, he realized, this meant it was time for him and Goldberg to go deep on satirizing the uncertain state of movie studios in a streaming tv series. Episodes will roll out weekly through May.
