With production on Season 2 of The Studio officially underway and Hollywood going through a rollercoaster of changes, the industry can expect many more laughs at its expense.
Chase Sui Wonders, who plays junior studio exec Quinn Hackett in the Apple TV+ series, teased to Deadline that co-creators Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg “are definitely pushing the needle” with the sophomore season of their Golden Globe-winning satire.
“It’s definitely a level up,” she said at Sundance Film Festival. “We’ve already started filming, and I think everyone is laughing harder and louder than they did last season, even in our first week.”

Wonders continued, “I can’t say much, but there are some familiar faces that you’ll be very excited to see making fun of themselves.”
After the show won the Golden Globe for Best Television Series — Musical or Comedy this month, as well as Best Actor for Rogen, he told press there were “a few people we roped in tonight” for cameos, adding, “This is a good poaching ground for us.”
