Madonna Returns to Acting After 24 Years – In Which Series Will She Participate?

Madonna is returning to acting after 24 years, joining the second season of Seth Rogen's series 'The Studio'. The pop star posted a photo on Instagram from a gondola in Venice, holding a script, with the caption 'The Italian job', hinting at her return to the big screen. The series follows Rogen in the role of a film company executive who is promoted to president and faces the challenges of his new position. Venice holds special significance for Madonna, as she filmed the famous 'Like a Virgin' music video there in 1984 and made her last film appearance in 'Swept Away' in 2002. 'The Studio' series was a great success and has already entered the production phase of its second season. It is not yet known whether Madonna will play herself, as many famous artists and personalities did in the first season. The cast of the series also includes Kathryn Hahn, Ike Barinholtz, and Chase Sui Wonders.
