Seth Rogen
Seth Rogen was born in Vancouver and got his start in comedy by performing stand-up at the Jewish youth camp he attended; at the age of 16 he won Vancouver's Amateur Comedy Contest. Rogen's first big acting role was in Judd Apatow's cult-classic television series "Freaks and Geeks," which premiered in 1999 and lasted only one season. Apatow, who became a close friend and mentor, next cast Rogen in a series called "Undeclared," which was canceled in 2002, and Adam McKay's hit film "Anchorman" (2004). In 2004 Rogen became a writer for "Da Ali G Show," a job that earned him an Emmy Award nomination, and the following year he appeared in (and co-produced) Apatow's "The 40-Year-Old Virgin." In 2008 he took on his first leading-man role, starring opposite Katherine Heigl in Apatow's "Knocked Up." That year also saw the release of "Superbad," a film Rogen had begun writing with a friend when he was a teenager. Rogen subsequently contributed voice talent to the animated films "Horton Hears a Who!" (2008), "Kung Fu Panda" (2008), "Monsters vs. Aliens" (2009) and "Kung Fu Panda 2" (2011). He wrote and starred in "Pineapple Express" (2008) and later that year played one of the title roles in Kevin Smith's "Zack and Miri Make a Porno." With Adam Sandler he starred in Apatow's third directorial outing, "Funny People" (2009). As producer and star he brought "The Green Hornet" to the big screen then appeared in "50/50" (2011), working alongside Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Anjelica Huston and Bryce Dallas Howard.
