The Studio: next episode, trailer, cast and everything we know about the Seth Rogen TV show

Seth Rogen in The Studio.

Seth Rogen is set to show us a take on the modern machinations of Hollywood, and all of its wild and ridiculous antics, in the new Apple TV Plus original series The Studio. Between putting a comedic twist on the inner workings of the movie business and all of the A-list stars and cameos that are going to be part of the series, there’s a lot to be excited about with The Studio, with many critics calling the show one of the best new comedies of the year, while WTW's own Tom Bedford calls it one of the best shows in years.

This is Rogen’s second collaboration with Apple TV Plus, following his critically-acclaimed series Platonic opposite Rose Byrne. With The Studio, Rogen stars, directs, co-writes and co-producers alongside his frequent collaborator Evan Goldberg and others. With all the star power behind it, the show could become one of the buzzier new TV shows in 2025.

Here’s everything you need to know about The Studio right now.

The Studio next episode

The Studio episode 3 is now available to stream on Apple TV Plus.

New episodes of The Studio premiere every Wednesday on the streamer.

In order to watch The Studio, you must have a subscription to Apple TV Plus.

The Studio cast

Seth Rogen leads the cast of The Studio as Matt Remick, the new head of a major Hollywood movie studio. Rogen made his acting debut on the cult comedy show Freaks and Geeks before breaking out in movies like The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up, Superbad, This Is the End, Neighbors and more. Among his recent credits include his Emmy-nominated performance in Pam & Tommy, Dumb Money, The Super Mario Bros. Movie and, later in 2024, Mufasa: The Lion King.

The supporting cast also features plenty of big names, including Catherine O’Hara (Beetlejuice Beetlejuice), Kathryn Hahn (Agatha All Along), Ike Barinholtz (The After Party), Chase Sui Wonders (Bodies Bodies Bodies), Keyla Monterroso Mejia (Abbott Elementary) and Dewayne Perkins (The Upshaws), with Bryan Cranston (Your Honor) as a guest star.

As we see in The Studio trailer, there are also going to be a number of other high profile guest stars/cameos. From what we can see the list includes Martin Scorsese, Zac Efron, Charlize Theron and Anthony Mackie, and there very well may be many more.

The Studio plot

Here is the official plot for The Studio:

“In The Studio, Seth Rogen stars as Matt Remick, the newly appointed head of embattled Continental Studios. As movies struggle to stay alive and relevant, Matt and his core team of infighting executives battle their own insecurities as they wrangle narcissistic artists and craven corporate overlords in the ever-elusive pursuit of making great films. With their power suits masking their never-ending 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 episodes

Here are the synopses for The Studio episodes that have been released thus far:
