Seth Rogen talks 'Green Hornet'
Seth Rogen spoke publicly for the first time about "Green Hornet" at Comic-Con on Saturday.
Rogen was in San Diego with his "Superbad" co-writer Evan Goldberg, director Greg Mottola, producer Judd Apatow and cast members Michael Cera, Jonah Hill and Christopher Mintz-Plasse.
Apatow introduced two clips from the film, which played like bonkers with the crowd, then he opened the floor up to questions from fans.
The majority of those questions were from teen girls who asked some variation of "Michael Cera, will you marry me?" or "Michael, can I have your children?" There were also the mandatory "Do you know if 'Arrested Development' is ever coming back?"
But one bold fan asked Rogen about his involvement with Columbia Pictures and Original Films' upcoming superhero remake.
"What's all this about 'Green Hornet'? And how did you get involved?" the fan asked.
"Well, I'm a writer and I gotta work," Rogen said.
He later added: "It's something that Evan [Goldberg] and I are big fans of.... We wrote 'Pineapple Express' together ... and we thought, 'What if we make an even bigger action movie? And what if I wear a mask? Evan really wanted me to wear a mask because he is so sick of seeing my face."
