Two of Apple TV+’s golden boys are uniting for a night of conversation.
Severance executive producer and director Ben Stiller and The Studio co-creator and star Seth Rogen will appear onstage together for a live taping of Josh Horowitz’s Happy Sad Confused podcast. The event is happening Aug. 15 at the Fine Arts Theatre in Beverly Hills.
Both Stiller and Rogen have had decades-long careers, but are enjoying a season of critical acclaim. Severance, praised as one of the more inventive and cerebral TV dramas on air, is coming off of 27 Emmy nominations for its second season, the most of any show this year.
Fellow Apple series The Studio was a breath of fresh air in the comedy space and quickly became an obsession in Hollywood after debuting in March thanks to its A-list cameos and its skewering of the town. It goes into the Emmys with 23 nominations, the most ever for a freshman comedy.
“Ben and Seth are two of the most innovative storytellers working today, each shaping and redefining the entertainment landscape in completely different ways,” said Horowitz, whose podcast is known for newsmaking, career-spanning conversations. “To have them share the same stage—at a moment when their work is being celebrated at the highest level—is exactly the kind of conversation Happy Sad Confused was made for. Oh, and they’re also really funny. This is going to be a special night.”
