[Satire] Roush Review: Hooray for Hollyweird in Brilliant ‘Studio’ Satire
- On Wednesday, March 26, Apple TV+ will premiere "The Studio," a new comedy series co-created and directed by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, starring Rogen as Matt Remick, a neurotic, film-obsessed creative executive who improbably becomes head of the fictional Continental Studios.
- The series satirizes Hollywood and the demoralizing reality behind the film industry, aiming to answer and ridicule questions about the circumstances of movie creation.
- Matt Remick is tasked with green-lighting movies for mass consumption, such as "Kool-Aid: The Movie," and navigating the demands of Continental Studios' crass CEO, played by Bryan Cranston, while working with colleagues like Patty Leigh and his VP of production .
- Bryan Cranston's CEO declares, "We don't make films," and Seth Rogen stated that executives can be in tears if they are not thanked in speeches, highlighting the often conflicting decisions faced by those in the industry.
- Despite the absurdity and frustrations within Hollywood, as described by S.J. Perelman and depicted in the series, Seth Rogen believes the magic of movies is still alive, with the series ultimately celebrating movies while lampooning their creation.
