Ridley Scott once pitched The Studio’s Seth Rogen a Monopoly movie and well, it sounded great: “[We] were like, ‘F***'”

Seth Rogen says he’s been pitched “every brand” movie from Hungry Hippos to Doritos – but it’s Ridley Scott’s epic Monopoly idea that he remembers most.

Speaking at Variety‘s Q&A for his new comedy series The Studio, the writer-director recalled the time he met with the filmmaker behind Gladiator and Alien. “He was going to direct the Monopoly movie, and me and Evan [Goldberg] went into his office and he said, ‘Imagine a helicopter shot of Central Park,'” Rogen began. “‘You’re looking down on it from above. You pull up, you see all the buildings surrounding Central Park. What does it look like?’ And then he said, ‘A Monopoly board!’ And were like, ‘F**k, that’s good.'”

Other pitches didn’t go down quite so well with the duo… “I think there was a Hungry Hungry Hippos movie in development for a while,” Rogen added. “I think we’ve been pitched every brand. I feel like there was a Doritos movie at some point. ‘Kool-Aid’ is not far off from what is actually floating around the halls of this place by any stretch of the imagination.”

Starring Rogen, Chase Sui Wonders, Ike Barinholtz, Kathryn Hahn, and Catherine O’Hara, The Studio follows a team of film producers, as they try to keep their struggling company Continental Studios afloat in a time of rapid social and economic change within the industry.
