Seth Rogen eyes Vin Diesel for 'The Studio' season 2
Seth Rogen
, the co-creator and star of the hit series '
The Studio
,' has expressed his desire to have
Vin Diesel
join the show's second season.
In a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Rogen discussed the show's renewal and his enthusiasm for potential guest stars.
'The Studio' has already made a significant impact with its first season, featuring many celebrity cameos, including Charlize Theron, Martin Scorsese, and Zac Efron.
The show revolves around Matt Remick, a studio head, and Rogen's character plays a central role in the series.
When asked about potential guest stars for season two, Rogen mentioned Vin Diesel as one of the actors he would love to work with.
"I think Vin Diesel would be very funny and fun to work with, mostly because if you think about it, he's only in those Fast & Furious movies," Rogen said, as quoted by The Hollywood Reporter.
He added that seeing Diesel outside of his iconic role as Dominic Toretto would be exciting, given his strong association with the franchise.
Rogen took the opportunity to extend an invitation to Diesel directly during the interview, joking about Diesel's alleged habit of watching Jimmy Kimmel Live! regularly.
"I assume you're watching this as you do every night. I assume you're watching it while driving like a 65 Pontiac. If you would please consider, maybe we can organise a Zoom -- and I'll capture your baldness on a hard drive," Rogen said, as quoted by The Hollywood Reporter.
With the show's renewal for a second season, fans can expect more celebrity cameos and engaging storylines.

‘Squid Game' creator CONFIRMS Gi-hun's fate; Teases potential spinoff
The creator of Squid Game, Hwang Dong-hyuk, is the one who is most excited about the release of the show's final season. The writer and director of the popular show opened up in a recent interview about his relief on the show coming to an end. "There hasn't been a single day that went by without me thinking about Squid Game,' he said to The Hollywood Reporter and admitted, 'This is something that has completely consumed me. " Although Squid Game's ending is not meant to set up any future stories "at this time," sources tell THR that director David Fincher is reportedly working on an English-language spinoff. The story of his main character, eager hero Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae), the indebted father who won the deadly Squid Games in season one and returned to defeat them in seasons two and three, is finally concluded in the final episodes, as Hwang had promised. But despite his heroic efforts, Gi-hun leaves this story unharmed. Rather, he gives his life to ensure the survival of Jun-hee's (Jo Yu-ri) newborn child. In the end, the infant assumes his mother's role as Player 222 and wins the games. His mother and father, Lee Myung-gi (Yim Si-wan), also known as Player 333, both meet tragic ends during the games. With Oscar-winning actress Cate Blanchett making a surprise appearance in the series' final scene as the Recruiter for an American version of the Squid Games, the combination of hope and gloom in Hwang's anti-capitalist thriller leaves viewers with a lot of thoughts. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Perdagangkan CFD Emas dengan Broker Tepercaya IC Markets Mendaftar Undo With an ongoing point that the Games will continue, the scene either closes the book on the story or allows the wildly popular franchise to continue with a potential spinoff series. While also sharing the thing he found most difficult to write in Gi-hun's ending, he said, "If season three is met with as much love as people loved season one, then I think I'm definitely going to feel less empty about saying goodbye.' Although he is open to future spin-offs that dive deeper into the recruiters' world, Hwang Dong-hyuk affirms that this concludes Gi-hun's arc and the original Korean narrative.

Sean Diddy Combs' son unveils new 'Diddy Free' song with Kanye West
As Sean "Diddy" Combs' criminal trial moves toward its end, his son Christian "King" Combs has released a new EP titled Never Stop on Friday. The project includes a song called "Diddy Free," which appears to support his father during his legal troubles, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The EP is a collaboration with rapper and producer Kanye West . His daughter, North West, is listed as a featured artist on the opening track "Lonely Roads." The EP dropped just before Diddy's lawyer gave closing arguments in court on Friday morning. Lead attorney Marc Agnifilo called the trial a "fake trial." According to the publication, Kanye West, who has stayed in the spotlight in 2025 for his controversial comments on social media, has publicly supported Diddy. He also appeared at the New York courtroom earlier this month. Sean Combs is facing serious charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering. He has pleaded not guilty and could face life in prison if convicted. Earlier this week, Combs chose not to testify in his defense. On Thursday, federal prosecutors made their closing arguments, which lasted more than four hours. "All of this evidence paints a clear picture of how the defendant committed crimes," said Assistant U.S. Attorney Christy Slavik. "Up until today, he was able to get away with it because of his money, his power (and) his influence. That stops now. It's time for justice. It's time to find the defendant guilty."

The Waterfront Season 2 in the works? Everything we know about Netflix's southern crime drama
The Waterfront may have only just premiered, but after rocketing to the top of Netflix's global Top 10, fans are already desperate for more. Released on June 19, the eight-episode crime drama created by Kevin Williamson follows the Buckley family, a struggling fishing dynasty in North Carolina, who get caught up in a violent drug smuggling war, according to a People report. In a bold season finale, the Buckleys took down dangerous smuggler Grady (Topher Grace), ending in a high-stakes yacht standoff and a dramatic kill-shot by Cane (Jake Weary). Although Netflix has not yet confirmed a second season, Williamson earlier told The Hollywood Reporter that he originally pitched the series as a three-season arc, with potential to go even further. Williamson told THR that three seasons would be a solid number, but he could go up to five seasons if the show were successful. As per the People report, with Grady's death being confirmed, Williamson hinted that Season 2 will be introducing a new primary antagonist: likely from the Parker family, who allied with the Buckleys in Season 1 but have more secrets to unravel. Williamson reportedly explained that the Parker family will become Waterfront Season 2's big conflict. He said there will be additional Parker family members, who will likely be equally as complicated as the Buckleys, adding that they could even be more dangerous than Grady. Even though no cast has been officially confirmed, Williamson expressed excitement about bringing back Jake Weary (Cane) and Rafael L Silva (Shawn), Harlan's secret son. Williamson further stated that getting to work with Rafael more would be incredible. He added that there's a bond which can't be broken. Given that most of the Buckleys survived the finale, including Melissa Benoist's Bree, who was shot and rescued, their stories could continue to unfold, the People report added. Grady, who had kidnapped Bree and her kid, Diller, was ambushed by Harlan and Cane. Cane ended up shooting Grady in the face during the showdown, then tossed him into the water. At the end of the season, the Buckleys were back together at Bree's hospital bed, so fingers crossed things will get better, even if there is still trouble ahead. You can stream all eight episodes of The Waterfront Season 1 on Netflix. Will there be a Season 2 of The Waterfront? Netflix has not confirmed a renewal yet, but creator Kevin Williamson has pitched a three-season arc and is hopeful. Is Grady dead? Yes. Kevin Williamson confirmed that Grady was 'definitely dead' after the Season 1 finale. What will Season 2 focus on? Season 2 could follow the Parker family as the new threat, with more Buckley family drama and a fresh villain at the center. Where can I watch The Waterfront? The full first season is available to stream on Netflix now.
