Apple TV+ dropped the trailer for its upcoming comedy series The Studio, created and starring Seth Rogen, recently. This comes before the premiere of the series at the South by Southwest Film Festival.

The official synopsis for the series is as follows: "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 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."

Along with Rogen, The Studio stars Kathryn Hahn, Catherine O'Hara, Ike Barinholtz, and Chase Sui Wonders. Bryan Cranston, Keyla Monterroso Mejia, and Dewayne Perkins star in recurring roles. Guest stars include Martin Scorsese, Greta Lee, Olivia Wilde, Zoe Kravitz, Paul Dano, etc.

The Studio is created by Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, Peter Huyck, Alex Gregory, and Frida Perez. Rogen, Goldberg, and Perez are also executive producers on the show. The Studio premieres on Apple TV+ on March 26.
