‘The Studio’ Bosses Evan Goldberg And Seth Rogen Talk Hollywood, Inspiration & Killing Martin Scorsese’s Fake Movie
'The Studio' co-creators Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg talk writing what they know for their Hollywood workplace comedy satirizing the industry.
The first installment sees Matt struggling to gain his C-(suite) legs; in his frenetic attempts to please everybody, he accidentally kills Martin Scorsese ’s final film about Jonestown, driving the auteur to tears and leading Charlize Theron to exile him from the hottest party in Tinseltown (both excellent cameos). As a team of infighting executives (Chase Sui Wonders, Kathryn Hahn, Ike Barinholtz, as well as Bryan Cranston and Catherine O’Hara) at Continental form their slate in an ever-changing movie ecosystem, they succumb to both the glittering promises of success and dooming pressures of career catastrophe. Below, the multi-Emmy-nominated executive producing, writing and directing duo behind fare from Superbad to The Boys chat with Deadline about the “high stakes” world of entertainment and what inspired them to hit a home run with their inside baseball workplace comedy.
