What is “The Studio” about:

🍿 Seth Rogen plays Matt Remick, the new head of the failing Continental Studios, who tries to save cinema in a world where it constantly “dies” and reinvents itself.

🍿 His team consists of big egos, panic behind every smile, and a constant balance between great cinema and career disaster.

🍿 The series portrays Hollywood as a battlefield: every casting decision, marketing call, or award can either turn the characters into legends or bury their careers.

🍿 For Matt, this is the dream job he has wanted his whole life, but it might just destroy him.
