Why Seth Rogen Turned Down Favorite Directors for The Studio Cameos

Seth Rogen has been having to make some tough decisions.

The star and co-creator of the Emmy-winning series The Studio recently told GQ that he had to “turn down” some of his favorite directors who have asked for cameos in the show’s second season.

“It does feel like I’m running a fake movie studio at times,” Rogen admitted. “I’m having directors’ agents call me to pitch their clients to be the directors of fake movies on our show, which is very weird and very meta. And I’m having to actually turn down directors I’m a big fan of because the movie, the fake movie, maybe isn’t quite right for the fake package we have in our heads. So yeah, it’s gotten very strange.”

The Studio‘s debut season, which ended up being a critically acclaimed success, featured quite a few famous guest stars. The series centered on a fictional Hollywood movie studio, Continental Studios, working to survive in a world where it is increasingly difficult for art and business to live together. Rogen stars as Matt Remick, a movie executive who gets promoted to president of the studio.

Though season one was packed with some iconic cameos, the Platonic actor still had plenty of people decline to make an appearance. However, some have since regretted that decision.

“I had a few people come up to me at the Emmys saying they regret it, which was very meaningful to me,” he said. “That’s all I want — for people to regret not working with me.”

In addition to all the cameos, Rogen has previously admitted that some of the characters and episodes in The Studio have been inspired by real Hollywood people or situations.

“Yes, I’ve been yelled at three times in the last week,” the Good Fortune star told Stephen Colbert earlier this year when asked about how people reacted when they eventually realized it was based on them. “Some of them are pleased, some of them are not pleased, I will say.”

Seth Rogen is having to turn down his favourite directors for ‘The Studio’ cameos: “It’s gotten very strange”

Seth Rogen has revealed he’s now having to turn down his favourite directors for cameos on The Studio.

The Hollywood satire stars Rogen as TV executive Matt Remick, who is promoted to the head of the fictional Continental Studios amid major changes in the film industry. The first season of the show, which is co-created by Rogen alongside Evan Goldberg, Alex Gregory and Peter Huyck, recently wrapped on Apple TV+.

The show is notable for its extensive use of A-list guest stars, many of whom play self-deprecating versions of themselves, with names so far having included Charlize Theron, Zoe Kravitz, Martin Scorsese, Zac Efron, Olivia Wilde, Bryan Cranston, Anthony Mackie, Ice Cube and Steve Buscemi.

Scorsese’s cameo in particular, Rogen says, has spurred other A-list directors to request an appearance on the show, with the actor describing the experience of turning down some of these names as “very meta”.

“It does feel like I’m running a fake movie studio at times,” he said in a recent interview with GQ. “I’m having directors’ agents call me to pitch their clients to be the directors of fake movies on our show, which is very weird and very meta. And I’m having to actually turn down directors I’m a big fan of because the movie, the fake movie, maybe isn’t quite right for the fake package we have in our heads. So yeah, it’s gotten very strange.”

He went on to add that the success of the show has led to a few people apologising for saying no to cameos. “I had a few people come up to me at the Emmys saying they regret it, which was very meaningful to me,” he explained. “That’s all I want – for people to regret not working with me.”

The interview comes after Rogen detailed his ideal hitlist for guest stars for season two, which includes Zendaya, James Cameron and Leonardo DiCaprio.

Speaking to Variety earlier this year, Rogen also hinted that Daniel Day-Lewis, who he described as “the greatest living actor”, would be an ideal candidate. “Daniel, please consider a Zoom with us,” he quipped. “We’ll pitch you a good idea.”

Dewayne Perkins, who plays publicist Tyler, has also tipped Zendaya for a role. “She’s everything,” he said. “She represents Hollywood in such a cool way, from being a child star to reaching the level that she’s reached. She’s a really good symbol of what Hollywood can be in a good way.”

In a glowing five-star review of season one, NME wrote: “This tongue-in-cheek takedown of the showbiz world is the funniest thing to come out of 2025 so far. If it doesn’t win an Emmy, there’s no justice left in Hollywood. Either that, or it’s a sign that the show has cut a bit too close to the bone – which feels like what The Studio is trying to do anyway.”

Rogen has also spoken recently about how the show was highly influenced by The Office.

Elizabeth Olsen Will Only Star in Studio Movies With Theatrical Releases

Elizabeth Olsen Will Only Star in Studio Movies With Theatrical Releases

by jummy84
written by jummy84

Elizabeth Olsen told InStyle magazine as part of a new cover story that she is no longer signing on to Hollywood studio movies that don’t have a guaranteed theatrical release. As an indie film darling since the start of her career with 2011’s “Martha Marcy May Marlene,” Olsen is comfortable acting in a movie without distribution that gets sold to a streamer. But her preference is always a theatrical release.

“If a movie is made independently and only sells to a streamer, then fine. But I don’t want to make something where [streaming is] the end-all,” Olsen said. “I think it’s important for people to gather as a community, to see other humans, be together in a space. That’s why I like sports. I think it’s really powerful for people to come together for something that they’re excited about. We don’t even audition in person anymore.”

Since her last outing as the Scarlet Witch in the Marvel Cinematic Universe courtesy of 2022’s “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,” Olsen has made only indie movies such as 2023’s “His Three Daughters,” 2024’s “The Assessment” and the upcoming A24 romantic comedy “Eternity.” Only “His Three Daughters” was backed by a streamer (in this case Netflix), although it was given an awards-qualifying theatrical release in select theaters.

Olsen knows a thing or two about bringing millions of people together in movie theaters thanks to the MCU, where she’s played Scarlet Witch since debuting in the post-credits scene of 2014’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier.”

“Making the films are fun. Goofy. It’s ridiculous. We’re grown people like children on a playground,” Olsen told InStyle about the MCU. “We’re flying. We’re shooting things out of our hands. And it’s a character that I’ve gotten to return to so many times after over 10 years. It’s good to put her down and then I miss  her and I want her back. I’d jump at the opportunity to be in her shoes again.”

Olsen added about the pros of the MCU, “It’s the consistency of a community and a job, which is hard to find. The insane camera movement, stunt work and special effects, visual effects that are happening in real time. It’s a lot of coordination, it’s hundreds and hundreds of people on set, and it’s a powerful thing to be a part of all those people working towards one goal. The people doing the visual effects are artists… The soul, the spirit, the heart is fulfilled doing it. It does mean something. I care about the acting being great — everyone does.”

The “Doctor Strange” sequel remains Olsen’s last in-person Marvel appearance as Scarlet Witch. She was recently featured as a voice role on the Disney+ animated series “Marvel Zombies.” Her next film is “Eternity,” co-starring Miles Teller and Callum Turner. The A24 film puts a fantasy spin on the rom-com genre by being set in an afterlife where the recently deceased have one week to decide who to spend eternity with. Olsen’s Joan must decide between her first love or the man she built her life with.

“Eternity” opens in theaters this Thanksgiving.

How 'Frankenstein' Invented the Modern Studio Horror Movie in 1931

How ‘Frankenstein’ Invented the Modern Studio Horror Movie in 1931

by jummy84
written by jummy84

When Guillermo del Toro‘s “Frankenstein” hits theaters today, it will join an honorable lineage of Mary Shelley adaptations that began in 1910, continued throughout the silent era, and helped create the template for the modern studio horror film just a few years after the arrival of sound. Del Toro‘s take on Shelley’s 1818 novel is more faithful to the source material than James Whale‘s 1931 incarnation with Boris Karloff, and follows through on the premise’s potential with greater philosophical depth and visual detail, but when it comes to influence and impact Whale’s “Frankenstein” will likely never be topped.

That’s because “Frankenstein,” along with an earlier 1931 release, Tod Browning’s “Dracula,” introduced the horror genre as a viable form for artistic expression and commercial success within the studio system. Both movies were made at Universal, a studio that became synonymous with horror after the success of “Dracula” and “Frankenstein” gave way to “The Wolf Man,” “The Mummy,” “The Invisible Man,” and myriad sequels and spinoffs well into the mid-1950s.

'Koln 75'

Although Universal had made a few horror or horror-adjacent films in the silent era, the boom in sound horror came courtesy of executive Carl Laemmle Jr., whose father, Universal founder Carl Laemmle, made his son head of production in 1929 as a 21st birthday present. The junior Laemmle was a passionate proponent of horror and pushed for “Dracula,” a film his dad didn’t really believe in; the main reason Laemmle Jr. was able to greenlight Browning’s adaptation of Bram Stoker’s vampire novel was that the young executive had recently had a major success with his World War I epic “All Quiet on the Western Front.”

With Bela Lugosi in the title role, “Dracula” was a smash hit upon its release in February 1931 and validated Laemmle Jr.’s faith in horror. As the studio scurried to capitalize on the film’s success, “Frankenstein” arose as a promising follow-up. Shelley’s story of a scientist who creates a sentient creature out of body parts cobbled together from various corpses was tailor-made for the screen — in fact, it had already been filmed at least three times.

The first adaptation, a 14-minute version made by the Edison Company in 1910, is quite possibly the world’s first horror film. Making these kinds of claims, however, is always dubious given how many silent pictures did not survive the era. Indeed, that was the case for two subsequent “Frankenstein” adaptations, the 1915 feature “Life Without Soul” and an Italian iteration called “The Monster of Frankenstein.” Only the Edison “Frankenstein” still exists in any kind of viewable form, via a restoration currently streaming on the Library of Congress YouTube channel.

Universal’s 1931 “Frankenstein” shouldn’t necessarily have been a game changer — rushed into production after “Dracula” became a hit, the film only gave its creators a handful of months from conception to release in which to make their classic. Yet somehow the stars aligned. “Frankenstein” was not only a better film than “Dracula” — wittier, more visually dynamic, and more poetic and poignant as well as scarier — but also an influence on all future “Frankenstein” movies and a model for much later horror films like Brian De Palma’s “Carrie” and Lucky McKee’s “May.”

As in those films, “Frankenstein” gets a lot of mileage out of creating a central figure who alternates between being the monster, the victim, and the hero all in the same movie. Frankenstein’s monster, as played by Boris Karloff, is one of the all-time great horror movie characters, a figure both terrifying and filled with pathos as an innocent dragged into a world that he did not make and that does not want him.

This remains consistent throughout nearly all of the “Frankenstein” movies that would follow Whale’s, up to and including del Toro’s iteration, which is overall more faithful to Shelley’s conception of the monster as a verbal being than Karloff’s grunting hulk. The monster’s lack of verbal sophistication, in fact, was one of the things that made Bela Lugosi reject the role after he was announced as the film’s star, though reportedly no one was particularly interested in seeing Lugosi in the part after a screen test featuring the actor in full monster makeup met with unintentional laughter. (Lugosi did ultimately play Frankenstein’s monster years later, in 1943’s “Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man.”)

Once Lugosi and original director Robert Florey left the project, the door was open for the filmmakers who would make “Frankenstein” iconic. James Whale was a recent arrival at Universal whose previous work included directing the dialogue scenes on Howard Hughes’ aviation epic “Hell’s Angels.” He kicked off his Universal contract in 1931 by directing “Waterloo Bridge,” a movie Laemmle Jr. was high enough on to give Whale his pick of material for his next project.

Whale responded to “Frankenstein,” and he knew who he wanted for the monster: Boris Karloff, whom he had seen in Howard Hawks’ “The Criminal Code.” (Karloff also had a small role in Hawks’ gangster classic “Scarface,” which had been shot but not released at the time “Frankenstein” went into production.) When Karloff put on Jack Pierce’s prosthetics and makeup (which took several hours each day of shooting to apply), he wasn’t silly like Lugosi. He looked both haunting and haunted, sad and terrifying.

Pierce was a master makeup artist (he would go on to create other Universal monsters like the Wolf Man and the Mummy), and he carefully adapted his design for Frankenstein’s monster to the contours of Karloff’s face, giving the actor maximum opportunities to convey emotion via facial expressions and gestures. This was key given that Karloff had no real dialogue, though he would be given a limited vocabulary in the 1935 sequel “Bride of Frankenstein.”

Karloff’s entrance in “Frankenstein” is one of the great introductions in horror movie history, as Whale blocks the scene with the monster backing into a room, withholding his visage from the audience as long as possible. Once Karloff slowly turns, Whale pushes the camera closer and closer to him in a series of cuts that thrust the viewer into the monster’s space — and which reveal the flawlessness of Pierce’s design in unblinking close-ups.

It’s still a powerful moment nearly a hundred years later, and the poignancy of the performance to follow is only more potent after decades of other — mostly inferior — presentations of the character. Certainly, none of the actors who took on the role in Universal productions after Karloff left the monster behind in “Son of Frankenstein” (1939) replicated Karloff’s subtle emotional effects, and even an actor as capable as Robert De Niro remained in Karloff’s shadow when he played the monster in Kenneth Branagh’s “Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein” in 1994.

One of the many laudable aspects of del Toro’s “Frankenstein” is the performance by Jacob Elordi, which invites and earns comparison with Karloff’s characterization in its depth and complexity; del Toro’s deep empathy for the monster and Elordi’s subtly calibrated evolution of the monster’s awareness make this the best “Frankenstein” since 1931. Elordi is so sympathetic that it doesn’t quite feel right to even call him the monster; Oscar Isaac’s Dr. Frankenstein is by far the more horrific of the characters in del Toro’s conception.

Revisiting Whale and Karloff’s “Frankenstein” after seeing del Toro and Elordi’s, the original film’s achievement is all the more impressive. Unlike “Dracula,” it really hasn’t dated aside from a few stale digressions involving Dr. Frankenstein’s fiancée and a generic rival for her affections. One reason is the movie’s lack of score; modern horror enthusiasts will be surprised to find that aside from the opening and closing credits, there’s no music in “Frankenstein” — something that was typical in 1931, as underscoring didn’t come into widespread use for another year or two.

In “Frankenstein,” the lack of score creates an austere purity, as our attention is focused on the intricacies of Whale’s vertically oriented visual design and the nuances of Karloff’s performance. The movie remains as effective as it presumably was in 1931, when it opened to blockbuster business and firmly determined that Universal would be a house of horror for decades to come.

In fact, the brand is still probably the major studio most associated with the genre thanks to its partnerships with filmmakers like Jordan Peele and Jason Blum, whose “The Black Phone 2” opens in theaters today alongside del Toro’s “Frankenstein.” Whale and Karloff’s classic may now be 95 years old, but its impact and influence are still felt at the multiplex virtually every month.

Rani Mukerji And UK PM Keir Starmer’s Unexpected Meeting At YRF Studio – A New Bollywood Diplomacy? | Glamsham.com

written by jummy84

On 8 October Wednesday, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer arrived at the iconic Yash Raj Films (YRF) studio in Mumbai during his two-day trade visit to India. The visit, aimed at increasing business and cultural cooperation, particularly in the creative industry, saw Starmer welcomed warmly by actress Rani Mukerji, YRF CEO Akshaye Widhani, and waving children.

Starmer screened the film specially at the studio and held talks with Mukerji and Widhani on how to enhance cooperation between the entertainment industries of the UK and India. The UK Prime Minister noted Bollywood’s rekindled interest in Britain, underlining its ability to drive jobs, investment, and cross-cultural exchange. “Bollywood is back in Britain,” he said, “with opportunity and growth and showcasing the UK as a world-class destination to make films.”

YRF CEO Akshaye Widhani also discussed the importance of the UK to YRF, reminding us that Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (DDLJ) was shot there. The visit comes also after the 30th anniversary of DDLJ and with YRF currently producing Come Fall in Love—a stage adaptation of DDLJ in English—in the UK.

As part of this new collaboration, the British Film Institute and the National Film Development Corporation of India entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). The MoU will facilitate co-productions, make sharing talent possible, and open up easier access to UK locations and infrastructure for Indian producers.

This collaboration leverages previous success such as Slumdog Millionaire, the UK-Indian co-production that garnered £300 million on a £12 million budget, underpinning cross-cultural storytelling backed by UK financing and Indian ingenuity.

Television’s biggest night returned with the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards, celebrating the best in television from standout stories, performances and creators of the year.

Comedian Nate Bargatze hosted the ceremony for the very first time and he was also nominated for his variety special, Your Friend, Nate Bargatze.

Ahead of the ceremony, Severance dominated the field with 27 Emmy nominations, while The Studio led comedy nominees with a record-breaking 23 nominations — the most-ever for a comedy series in its first season.

Canadian actor Seth Rogen, who co-created the series with longtime collaborator Evan Goldberg, was a triple threat on Emmys night, taking home awards for acting, writing and directing

Rogen took home the first award of the night for Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for his role in The Studio.

“I’ve never won anything in my life. When I was a kid I bought a used bowling trophy at an estate sale,” he said during his acceptance speech for his first-ever Emmy win.

The Studio continued to dominate as it was awarded the Emmy for Outstanding Comedy Series.

“I’m legitimately embarrassed by how happy this makes me,” said Rogen.

Rogen’s four wins, along with nine claimed at last weekend’s Creative Arts Emmys, broke a record set last year by The Bear with 11 for the most wins by a comedy series in a single season.

Tramell Tillman became the first Black man to win Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for his role in Severance. Backstage, Tillman applauded the scores of Black actors that came before him, including the late Andre Braugher and Michael K. Williams.

“I’ve been taken by their work for years and I’ve borrowed from them, so I’m just honoured to be in the class,” said Tillman.

“I was nothing about three years ago, and now here I am,” Cooper told the crowd. “Step out of your comfort zone a little, who cares if you get embarrassed.”

The Late Show With Stephen Colbert (airing on Global on weeknights at 11:30 p.m. ET) took home the Emmy award for Best Variety Talk Series.

Colbert thanked CBS for “giving us the privilege to be part of the late-night tradition, which I hope continues long after we’re no longer doing this show.”

His comments come after it was announced that The Late Show would be ending after a 33-year run next May.

“Stay strong. Be brave. And if the elevator tries to bring you down, go crazy and punch a higher floor,” said the 61-year-old comic.

Colbert received a standing ovation for his talk series win and when he was done talking, the crowd got back on its feet.

All the months of FYC events and campaigning to recognize the best in television art from the past season have come to a close. The 2025 Emmys have wrapped from L.A. Live’s Peacock Theater where they were hosted by comedian Nate Bargatze.

“The Studio” ended up breaking the record for the most Emmys ever won by a comedy series in its first season with 13 overall, including the awards for Best Actor in a Comedy Series to Seth Rogen, Best Directing of a Comedy to Rogen and Evan Goldberg, and Best Writing of a Comedy to Rogen and the whole team. And finally, Outstanding Comedy Series (a fourth for Rogen, as a producer on the show, which ties the record for the most Emmys won in one night by an individual). Yes, Seth Rogen ended up winning four Emmys himself after having previously been nominated for five Emmys in previous years and never won. Nine of the 13 Emmys for “The Studio” were handed out at the Creative Arts Emmys September 16.
