They look like William S. Burroughs and Francis Ford Coppola?

After clicking Leon Gast on IMDB, the figure on the right actually looks a lot like Jerry Garcia from his Grateful Dead doc.

When We Were Kings makes sense if we're to believe it's Allen and Coppola

I saw Soderbergh and Coppola. Maybe it's just from reading articles about the recent Tribeca Q&A for the new cut of Apocalypse Now.

Definitely think you're right.
Not sure how the kings imagery works here, but it could be a double clue or a hint at a dual-release of both Grateful Dead and When We Were Kings. Unless that's too much?

If we take it further, maybe the guy on the left is wearing a leather jacket from his Hell's Angels doc. For a full boxset?

My thinking is they used to be Hollywood royalty and they're not anymore. That might be a stretch but feels right to me.

Maybe that’s Allen Ginsberg instead of Copolla

My first thought was Ginsberg too but it looks so much like Coppola to me I can't shake it

Ginsberg only grew that beard after he'd become completely bald on top.
My first thought was also Burroughs and Coppola, but I'm not sure what that would mean other than A Junky's Christmas.

The figure on the left looks like Leon Gast (based on a google image search). So I'm guessing the person on the right is Jerry Garcia, and it's a clue for WHEN WE WERE KINGS and THE GRATEFUL DEAD MOVIE.

I just Wiki’d Gast. It has to be The Greatful Dead movie.
CC usually has at least one music based release each year. We are due.
