Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos is making his acting debut with a cameo in Seth Rogen's The Studio, the upcoming showbiz-themed comedy for Apple TV+.
We won’t spoil Sarandos’ interaction with Remick beyond teasing that it involves a chance encounter at the Golden Globes. In a recent Vanity Fair interview, The Studio ‘s co-creator, writer, director, executive producer and star Rogen spoke about getting Sarandos, whom he had known for decades, to appear on the show alongside a slew of other big Hollywood names who also have cameos including Anthony Mackie, Charlize Theron, Zac Efron, Martin Scorsese, Olivia Wilde, Adam Scott, Zack Snyder, Zoë Kravitz, Quinta Brunson, Aaron Sorkin, Ron Howard, Sarah Polley, Steve Buscemi, Peter Berg, and Jean Smart and the creators of Hacks.
