I just wanted to let everyone know Seth Rogen Online has been uniting fans for 2 years! This site was launched October 10th, 2007 (sorry this is a little late). I wanted to say a big thank you to all the visitors and supporters of this site – thank you so much for your continued support! Also, a big thank you to Seth Rogen himself for inspiring this site!

Friends of Seth Rogen, Leslie Mann and Judd Apatow are being honored tonight:

The Fulfillment Fund, a nonprofit dedicated to helping promising yet disadvantaged students graduate from high school and complete college, will honor Director/Writer/Producer Judd Apatow and his wife, actress Leslie Mann, at its STARS 2009 Benefit Gala, Monday, October 26, 2009 at the Beverly Hills Hotel. The evening will include a special Gitnick Visionary Award presentation to Jana Waring Greer, President and CEO of SunAmerica Retirement Markets. Jonah Hill and Jason Segel will serve as Masters of Ceremony. Entertainment will include a special performance by John Mayer and the evening will feature an opportunity drawing for a 2009 Saab.

The Fulfillment Fund is proud to honor Judd Apatow and Leslie Mann. Judd’s been a leading force in the world of comedy since the 2005 release of the hit film “The 40-Year-Old Virgin” and has been recognized for his work as a producer and writer on many critically acclaimed television shows. Leslie has been making audiences laugh for years. Together they have demonstrated a commitment to philanthropy through their support of organizations for the homeless and 826 LA, a writing and tutoring center for disadvantaged youth.

Seth Rogen’s happy to finally be filming “The Green Hornet.”

“‘Green Hornet’ is everything I imagined and more,” Rogen told reporters Thursday evening, adding that even though the production, which spent years in development, has begun, “we still gotta make it awesome.”

Rogen said that because he’s a writer, producer and star on “Green Hornet,” he’s feeling the pressure to make it great. Seth Rogen shoots “The Green Hornet.”

“I will blame Gondry if it sucks though,” he joked. “I take a huge amount of the pressure. I understand that it’s my face on it when it comes out even if it sucks for another reason people will blame me. That’s why I have to be so involved to try to make sure that it doesn’t suck. I’ve been talking about this movie for years, and if it sucks no one will be more disappointed than me, believe me.”

Rogen was promoting his Halloween special, “Monsters vs. Aliens: Mutant Pumpkins from Outer Space,” in which he again voices B.O.B. the blob, but he revealed some news about “Green Hornet.”

“Edward Furlong is in the movie, yes,” Rogen said, confirming a report in People a few weeks ago. He remained tight-lipped about what character the “Terminator 2″ actor plays. “That I can’t reveal.”

Rogen also spoke about how the metal band Anvil ended up in the film.

“Well, as a Canadian hard rock fan, I actually have known about Anvil for many, many years,” Rogen said. “We needed a band for a scene in the movie and [director Michel] Gondry was like, ‘How about Anvil?’ and we asked them and they said yes.”

The animated “Monsters vs. Aliens: Mutant Pumpkins from Outer Space” airs at 7 p.m. Oct. 28. I’ll have more from Rogen on the special in a few days.

The Funny People DVD/Blu-ray’s release date has been announced for, November 24th.

Sorry these are a little late, but I have added over 850 screen captures from the animated film, Monsters Vs. Aliens. Seth was the voice of the lovable and dimwitted B.O.B. It is a very cute and funny movie. Monsters Vs. Aliens features to vocal talent of Seth Rogen, Reese Witherspoon, Will Arnett, Hugh Laurie, and Stephen Colbert (just to name a few).

NBC is airing Monsters vs. Aliens: Mutant Pumpkins from Outer Space on October 28th, and according to Collider, the special features the voices of Reese Witherspoon, Seth Rogen, Hugh Laurie, Will Arnett, Kiefer Sutherland, and Rainn Wilson, all of whom appeared in the original film.

Monsters vs. Aliens: Mutant Pumpkins from Outer Space is produced by Latifa Ouaou and directed by Peter Ramsey from a screenplay by Adam F. Goldberg.

Everyone loves a great underdog story (Rudy! Rudy!); and the story of Canadian heavy metal band Anvil is one of the better ones we’ve seen as of late. Their documentary, Anvil! The Story of Anvil has received almost purely raving reviews (98% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes), and has re-entered the band into the public eye, where they surely deserve to be.

In their re-acquired fame, the band — consisting of Steve Kudlow, Robb Reiner, and Glenn Five — have found themselves playing festivals and shows again, recording a new album, and appearing on many different popular talk shows. Better yet, they’ve apparently even netted themselves another movie gig: a cameo appearance in Seth Rogen and Michel Gondry’s The Green Hornet adaptation. As it turns out, Gondry is one of the many fans of the band and brought them in to film a brief scene where they actually explode while playing a rock club — likely to be the work of a villain that the Hornet will have to pursue and apprehend.

Even more good news for the band: The Story of Anvil is now officially the very first screener to be sent out to the Academy of Motion Picture Science’s 6,000 voters for Oscar consideration. This honor has been share by movies like Little Miss Sunshine, Junebug, and Frozen River — all of which went on to considerable success in their award runs.

The movie documents the band’s story in full, their highs and lows, all with interviews with members of huge bands in music like Metallica, Guns ‘N Roses, and Slayer talking about how much Anvil inspired them to do what they do.

He is used to playing the funny fat man, but now Seth Rogen has turned into the super hero. The Knocked Up actor has trimmed down his waistline to shoot the lead role in The Green Hornet. Seth first began losing weight last year for the role, but rewrites, director and casting changes have all had the project on ice until now. The actor, who also wrote the screenplay, was filming in a rock quarry in Los Angeles with Jay Chou, who plays his trusty sidekick Kato.

The Green Hornet is a big screen version of the 1960s TV show, which starred Bruce Lee as Kato, and also stars Cameron Diaz as a reporter and Britt Reid’s (aka The Green Hornet) love interest. But despite looking much slimmer, trimmer and healthier for the role, Rigen revealed he felt like a ‘sell out’ for losing the weight.

‘I’ve been eating better and training – and hating myself for it. I feel like a sell out, I feel lame, I feel like a guy I would make fun of,’ he said.

He said he lost weight by eating well and exercising with a personal trainer.

‘I go there real early in the morning,’ he added. ‘He tells me what to do, and I go home and go to sleep, and it’s like it never even happened.’

He needs to be fit for the role as in an interview last April, he claimed he would be doing all his own stunts.

The Green Hornet, who happens to be the Lone Ranger’s grand-nephew, is a newspaper publisher by day who fights crime by night accompanied by Kato. He drives a car with advanced technology called Black Beauty, and has brilliant hand-to-hand combat skills. In the TV series he was armed with a sonic blast weapon called the Hornet’s Sting, and in many versions he carries a gun that sprays knock-out gas. The film, directed by Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind’s Michel Gondry, takes ideas from both the original radio programme in the 1930s, the 60s TV show and comic book series.

Authorities were called to the Los Angeles shooting location of the Michel Gondry-directed movie when the crew found an unidentified metal object in the parking lot.

Mishap apparently isn’t ready to leave the set of “The Green Hornet“. After a car chase scene went awry in early September, the Los Angeles set of the masked vigilante adaptation saw a bomb scare unraveling on Tuesday, September 29 as crew members found an unidentified metal object lying in the parking lot.

Following the discovery, the crew alerted the security which led to response from LAPD bomb squad. Preventing the worse, the squad reportedly blew up the object on the spot with a robot. A police spokesman told E! News, “Everything is clear, they only found a smoke detector.” It is unclear whether the stars, including Seth Rogen and Cameron Diaz, were on the set during the incident.

Earlier in the month, the production was hit with an on-set mishap when a stunt driver, who was reportedly manning the Black Beauty car, lost control of the car and crashed into the front of the Creative Artists Agency’s headquarters. While the stuntman escaped without injury and none of the stars were involved, the film crew’s construction department were seen working all day making repairs.

“The Green Hornet”, in the meantime, is an adaptation of WXYZ’s radio show created by George W. Trendle and Fran Striker. Penned by Rogen and his writing partner in “Knocked Up”, Evan Goldberg, it centers on Britt Reid, a newspaper publisher by day and masked vigilante Green Hornet by night, and his adventures in fighting crimes. December 17, 2010 will be the date it is opened wide in U.S. theaters.
