The series has been noted for its humor, satire, and direction. The Studio is also known for regularly featuring A-list celebrity cameos in each episode. Therefore, it would be interesting to see which celebrities guest-star in season 2.

Daniel Day-Lewis, Sabrina Carpenter, and other actors who should guest star in The Studio season 2
1) John Hamm

John Hamm is one of the most versatile actors of this generation. After entertaining audiences with his enigmatic role as Don Draper in Mad Men, it is time that Hamm makes a cameo in The Studio season 2.
Hamm has shown his comic timing with guest roles in Parks and Recreation and The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Although known for his more serious performances, the actor is known for his commanding screen presence and versatility, making him fit perfectly in the world of The Studio.
2) Greta Gerwig

One of the few path-breaking female directors to infuse themes of feminism and women empowerment in her movies, Greta Gerwig, is the ideal choice for a cameo in The Studio season 2. In the first season, the show had appearances by Scorsese and Ron Howard, therefore, Gerwig is apt to be next in line.
The show is about Seth Rogen’s character trying to produce quality films while facing the challenges of corporate demands. Therefore, Gerwig's appearance would blend perfectly with the series plot. In an interview with Howard Stern, Rogen even credited Gerwig for saving Hollywood with her movie, Barbie.
3) Matt Damon and Ben Affleck

These two Hollywood stars have converted their childhood friendship into a lasting professional relationship. The two actors first came together for Good Will Hunting, for which they also received the Oscars for Screenplay. The duo is highly successful in Hollywood, and their combined cameo in The Studio season 2 would definitely elevate the show.
Damon and Affleck are Hollywood insiders and have worked in multiple movies together. Their presence on the show would make it entertaining to watch, but also add to the story.
4) Sabrina Carpenter

If The Studio season 2 wants to attract a younger viewership, they should definitely cast someone the Gen Z audience resonates with. Sabrina Carpenter ticks all those boxes. Not only has she gained a meteoric rise as a singer, but she also has an immense social following.
She has showcased on various occasions that she has comedic talents. From being a Disney star to touring with Taylor Swift, the singer is fun, entertaining, and the voice of a modern generation.
5) Daniel Day-Lewis

The endorsement for Daniel Day-Lewis comes from Rogen himself. In a recent interview with Variety on the FYC red carpet, Rogen accepted that he wants the veteran actor to be a guest star on The Studio season 2. Even though Day-Lewis has recently come out of retirement and has never forayed into comedy, Rogen believes he would be a good source of humor as the show is about Hollywood satire.
In the interview, Rogen stated that Daniel Day-Lewis is a talented actor and his “process is…specific”. Therefore, it would be interesting to explore him as a cameo in the show. While the actor has not been into comedy, he is a three-time Oscar winner, and that says a lot about his acting abilities.
The Studio is available on Apple TV+
