Seth Rogen, star and co-creator of Apple TV+’s The Studio (Apple TV+)The Studio is a TV satire of Hollywood that has become a darling of the TV and film industry; it stars Seth Rogen as an earnest but frantic head of a legacy movie studio. With 23 Emmy Award nominations, the Apple TV+ series broke records for a comedy in its first season. These executives “really could get fired at any moment for anything,” Rogen says — and their feedback is often based in fear. Rogen was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series, for his role as the desperate new chief of the fictitious Continental Studios, who manages to muck up his productions. Rogen says a lot of people like to engage in deep philosophical conversations about the state of the industry.
