Seth Rogen eyes Vin Diesel for The Studio season 2
Washington [US], June 22 (ANI): Seth Rogen, the co-creator and star of the hit Apple TV plus 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. (ANI)

Ludacris says next Fast and Furious film will be a 'big one' for the franchises 25th year
Los Angeles [US], June 29 (ANI): The Fast and Furious series may be racing toward a big finish. Actor-rapper Ludacris, during a recent event in Los Angeles, spoke to PEOPLE about his upcoming projects, including what could be his final ride in the long-running action series. Ludacris, whose real name is Christopher Bridges, confirmed he's working on one more Fast and Furious movie, which is expected to mark the franchise's 25th anniversary in 2026. The first Fast and Furious film was released in June 2001. "One more Fast and Furious because it's the 25-year anniversary," the 47-year-old star said. "So those are the two big things right now... But that whole 25-year anniversary is definitely a big deal," he added. Ludacris joined the series in 2 Fast 2 Furious in 2003, where he played Tej Parker. He most recently appeared in Fast X, which came out in 2023 and made over \$700 million worldwide, according to PEOPLE. Earlier in 2024, the actor spoke to PEOPLE about the future of the franchise, saying, "A lot of other franchises, they may end, but they don't really end... It's almost like the beginning of something new, so I don't feel like it'll ever truly end either, but you never know." In the same interview in 2024, the rapper hinted at the fact that Fast X might not be the last movie. "The last one was open-ended, so to speak. It kind of left people hanging," he told PEOPLE. "I feel like we are definitely going to come back at some point very soon to surprise everyone. Will it be the last? I don't know, but we shall see." The franchise, known for its action-packed car chases and focus on family, also stars Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, and Dwayne Johnson. The late Paul Walker was also a key part of the series. Vin Diesel has previously said the next film, Fast X: Part 2, will be the final chapter. He called it a "celebration of the incredible family we've built together." "This grand finale is not just an ending; it's a celebration of the incredible family we've built together," he wrote on Instagram at the time. An official release date for Fast X: Part 2 has not been announced. (ANI)
