The 10-episode Apple TV+ series stars Rogen as rising executive Matt Remick in addition to co-creating, producing, and co-directing the show. Throughout the show, Matt struggles to support the filmmakers and actors while simultaneously stressing about his company.

In a 2006 sit-down with Tom Cruise, Rogen and Judd Apatow found themselves in the middle of a five-hour meeting that took a bizarre turn. It started regular—talking movies, comedy, the usual—but then, Cruise went entire Cruise. If you remember, this was around the time of the infamous Oprah couch incident, where Tom declared his love for Katie Holmes and gave us all the “TomKat” craziness. But in this meeting, Cruise wasn’t talking about love—he was talking about the media twisting his image. According to Rogen, Cruise said, “Well, yeah, they’re making it seem like I’m losing my mind.” And when Rogen asked who was behind it, Cruise dropped the bomb: “The pharmaceutical industry.” Yeah. Tom Cruise thinks Big Pharma was out to get him because of his anti-prescription drug stance. It’s a whole vibe. You see, back in 2005, Cruise made headlines by calling out Brooke Shields for taking …

Seth Rogen and James Franco, two of the most celebrated names in comedy, shared a long history of collaboration until their friendship fell apart in 2018. The Pineapple Express actors first teamed up on the 1999 show Freaks and Geeks when both were starting out in Hollywood. From there, they became a dynamic duo, starring together in hit comedies like Knocked Up and The Disaster Artist.
