After starting production at the end of March, the actor and comedian was spotted filming a car scene along the iconic Hollywood Blvd. with co-star Ike Barinholtz in the early morning hour on Friday.
Rogen, 42, was seen in the driver’s seat of an old convertible sports car as he stopped at a red light in Hollywood, wearing a brown blazer and red shirt.
He had a serious look on his face as Barinholtz sat in the passenger seat, beaming a big smile and looking like he had just laughed out loud.

The Studio seems to be something of a passion project for Rogen, as he writes, produces, directs, and stars in episodes for the upcoming Apple TV+ production.
The series centers on an older Hollywood studio that struggles to keep up with technology and how quickly it is shaping films and TV, according to Collider.
It is believed that Rogen will play a studio director and/or producer who feels the pressure of losing his company that struggles to survive and maintain a balance between art and commerce.
In addition to Rogen and Barinholtz, the stellar main cast also includes Catherine O’Hara, Kathryn Hahn and Chase Sui Wonders.
It has also been revealed that high-profile guest stars will include Bryan Cranston, Keyla Monterroso Mejia and Dewayne Perkins.
Rogen and longtime friend and collaborator Evan Goldberg, 41, co-created the new series with Frida Perez, Peter Huyck and Alex Gregory.
The duo worked together in several successful projects, such as the comedy film This Is The End (2013), the animated adult superhero series Invincible (2021–present), and the animated superhero film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem (2023).
In addition to writing and directing The Studio, Rogen and Goldberg will also serve as executive producers, along with Perez, Huyck, Gregory, as well as Alex McAtee and Josh Fagen.

Rogen announced that the shoot for The Studio had begun with a photo of the production’s clapboard with his and co-director Evan Goldberg’s name on it, along with cinematographer Adam Newport-Berra, posted to Instagram on April 9.
The actor and comedian’s Instagram post also included a photo of the sports car as he shared a low-profile co-star with Los Angeles on the horizon.
Rogen and company began shooting the series less than two weeks after announcing the first cast members for the show.
The Superbad star would then announce via social media on April 9 that the cameras had already started rolling, including a photo of The Studio’s clapboard with the names of the directors, Rogen and Goldberg, and cinematographer Adam Newport-Berra.
Among the other photos in the Instagram post announcing the shoot had begun was a photo of the Rogen convertible sports car and an inconspicuous co-star with the Los Angeles skyline in the distance.
Apple TV+ has not yet announced any further details about The Studio, including when a trailer will be released and when the series is expected to premiere on the Apple TV+ platform.
