In The Studio , Seth Rogen stars as Matt Remick, the newly appointed head of embattled Continental Studios.

With their power suits masking their neverending sense of panic, every party, set visit, casting decision, marketing meeting, and award show presents them with an opportunity for glittering success or career-ending catastrophe. As someone who eats, sleeps, and breathes movies, it’s the job Matt’s been pursuing his whole life, and it may very well destroy him.

The Studio is created by Peter Huyck and Alex Gregory along with Rogen and Goldberg, and Frida Perez.
