| Seth Rogen in 2013 |
This is the Canadian comedian, actor and
director who described fellow actor Zach Efron as the “sexiest motherf***er
alive”. At only 31 years of age, this comedic genius has already won several
awards and received over a dozen nominations including for a Primetime Emmy.
Besides his obvious love for Zach Efron,
Seth is known for his acclaimed performance in The 40 Year Old Virgin, and his
work on Knocked Up, Horton Hears a Who! and Superbad which he co-wrote at age
13. Even though he is a high-school dropout, he became the main wage earner in
his family at 16.
His appearance is unmistakable, with his
curly brown hair and deep voice, this (somewhat heavy-set) guy is average
enough to be identifiable, but still makes for an instantly recognisable
figure. In his acting he often portrays a somewhat unkempt man child who makes
you want to laugh along because of his trademark infectious laugh.
He has sparked some controversy by making
statements in favour of communism, which is considered a dirty word in the USA
and he has accused nerds of having a love of complaining, in response to the
harsh criticism of his work on The Green Hornet. Also he has admitted to
fantasising about kicking Paul McCartney in the crotch. He has however managed
to survive all that so far and he remains mostly known for his work on film,
stand-up and television.
He has collaborated on some quite famous
series, including Arrested Development where he plays the young George Bluth
and The Simpsons where he voiced several characters, including himself. He has
also played himself on several other occasions, however his portrayal of
fictitious characters is the most well-known.
This rising star in comedy seems to have a
bright future. He is going strong and has worked on a couple of really good
films and series. We are eager to see where he goes from here.
