Chaotic sets and the grimy sales side of the film industry make for one epic TV series. If you haven’t seen the Seth Rogen-led comedy show, The Studio, prepare for a hyperbolized take on Hollywood. Now that the show has been praised and nominated for 23 Emmy Awards, fans are dying to know when they can expect season 2 to come out.
The Studio follows the self-described film buff Matt Remick, who becomes the new head of Continental Studios. As he transitions into his new powerful executive position, Matt must juggle his desire to make quality films with his day job in an IP-driven landscape.
Co-creator Evan Goldberg previously explained to Deadline that while the show dramatizes the greedy corporate mindset among certain film executives, he emphasized that they’re “just more seen” in comparison to the “wonderful people” who work in the business.
“They get this bad rap, but most of the people in Hollywood are beautiful, wonderful people who could have done anything else and chose to do this because they love it — from the props master to the PAs, to the craft service producers, to the actors,” Evan said. “So, when we’re showing the dirtier, sh*ttier sides of the industry, it doesn’t feel like we’re taking cheap pot shots because the whole thing is a love letter. And one that we want to be, again, a realistic portrayal of Hollywood, not a shined-up one or a dirty one.”
Below, get updates on when we can expect season 2 of The Studio to be released.
All episodes of The Studio are currently streaming on Apple TV+.
