Why Seth Rogen Was Weirded Out After Meeting Sylvester Stallone
Seth Rogen reveals that he felt a little weird after meeting Sylvester Stallone for the first time. Known as one of the quintessential action movie stars of the '80s and '90s, Stallone has starred in hit movies like Rocky, Rambo, Cliffhanger, Demolition Man, and Judge Dredd, and has recently seen something of a career resurgence with more modern franchises like The Expendables and Creed. Expendables 4, the latest in the franchise, is currently in post-production and will likely release at some point this year.
On the other end of the movie star spectrum, Rogen has very much built his career around more silly and comedic roles, appearing in films like Superbad, Pineapple Express, This Is the End, and Neighbors. In addition to acting, Rogen is also a notable producer, with credits including The Boys, Pam & Tommy, Preacher, and Blockers. Rogen is also hard at work on a new CGI-animated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reboot, which is due out next year in addition to co-running his very own cannabis company, Houseplant.
