The new trailer for Apple's The Studio showcases a chaotic filmmaking process.

The new trailer for The Studio on Apple TV features an exceptionally brilliant cast.

Behind every big-budget film production is a group of executives aware that getting too involved in the creative aspect can lead to disastrous consequences. While it is often wise to let artists work in peace, this kind of logic seems scarce in Apple TV Plus's new comedy series, The Studio.

Created by Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, Peter Huyck, Alex Gregory, and Frida Perez, The Studio tells the story of Matt Remick (Rogen), who has just been promoted to head of Continental Studios and sees this new position as a unique opportunity in his career. After working under the direction of the former boss, Griffin Mill (Bryan Cranston), Matt, alongside his assistant turned development executive Quinn Hackett (Chase Sui Wonders) and his colleague Sal Seperstein (Ike Barinholtz), believes he finally has the chance to shape the future of the studio. However, they will soon realize how absurd it can be to keep multiple teams with differing priorities satisfied.

The trailer for The Studio suggests that Matt could be the cause of many of the studio's problems, featuring a star-studded cast with guest appearances from Martin Scorsese, Greta Lee, and Ice Cube playing themselves. At first glance, the teaser seems to indicate certain similarities to the recent HBO series, The Franchise, although the new show is expected to offer a more robust approach in terms of comedy when it premieres on March 26.
