Seth Rogen Unveils Major Release Date Shift for The Studio Season 2

If you thought The Studio was going to ride its Golden Globe win quietly into the sunset, think again. Seth Rogen isn't wasting any time—according to him, cameras are rolling on Season 2, like, basically now. Let's break down what he let slip (and honestly, he seems pretty tickled about it all).

Season 2: Cameras Roll Fast

Fresh off snagging Best Comedy Series at the 2026 Golden Globes, Seth Rogen—who wears about five different hats on this show (co-creator, star, executive producer, probably also chief weed wrangler)—says production on The Studio Season 2 is happening basically immediately. Here's how blunt he was about it:

'We start shooting in a week.'

That's not hyperbole. That is an actual quote from Rogen, right after their Globe win. So if you liked season one, rest easy: the next batch is coming together right now.

The Award Show Really Did Change the Show

Now, here's where things get particularly meta. Rogen says the chaos and weird energy around awards season isn't just good for popping champagne—it basically fueled new storylines for the show. He didn't get too specific, but apparently, real-world drama around the Golden Globes and the build-up has been written straight into Season 2's scripts.

If you pay attention, he promises you'll spot which moments are "ripped from the headlines," so get ready for industry in-jokes that feel a little too familiar.

Hollywood Suddenly Wants In

Another thing changing for the The Studio team right now: the industry isn't just watching—they're practically begging for a cameo. Rogen says execs, studio heads, and various insiders are now personally asking for any kind of part, no matter how small:

• 'A lot of people literally just come up to us and were like, Put me on your show. I’ll do anything. I’ll walk by!'
• Rogen specifically name-dropped Sony Pictures chairman Tom Rothman as an example—yup, actual studio honchos want to hang out on The Studio. (And why not? The vibe looks fun, plus it's free PR.)
• He also joked about Netflix's co-CEO Ted Sarandos popping up last season and "ruining it for everyone"—presumably because now every exec wants their own screen time.

When to Expect Season 2

Don't start making watch-party snacks just yet—Apple TV+ hasn't committed to an official release date. But if filming is really starting next week, safe bet is we'll see new episodes either by the end of this year or (worst case) early 2027. That's actually pretty speedy for a streaming comedy, especially one with this much insider attention.

Bottom line: The Studio is hot off an awards win and already capitalizing on the drama behind the drama. If you want to watch TV about Hollywood that's actually made by people right in the thick of it—plus the occasional random studio mogul lookin' awkward in the background—Season 2 should stay firmly on your radar.
