Ah, Hollywood! Seth Rogen revisited an incident with Emma Watson from the production of This Is the End, which reminds us that sometimes, things don’t go as planned on set.
In this 2013 apocalypse comedy, Watson played a satirical version of herself amid a chaotic end-of-the-world scenario. But things got a bit too chaotic for Watson when a particular scene involving Channing Tatum in an instead compromising gimp outfit didn’t sit well with her. Rumors swirled that she “stormed off the set,” but Rogen wanted to set the record straight.
He took to social media, clarifying, “Emma Watson did not ‘storm off the set,’ and it’s shitty that the perception is that she did.” A fair point, Seth! He explained that the scene deviated significantly from what Watson had initially agreed to, citing last-minute improvisation that led to a script flip. “The narrative that she was in some way uncool or unprofessional is complete bullshit,” he stated. Talk about defending a friend!

Rogen reflected on his role in this “shitty situation,” admitting that he could’ve communicated better. “I was thrilled for the opportunity to work with her and would be thrilled to get that opportunity again,” he shared. What a commendable attitude! He also expressed his disappointment about how the situation unfolded, saying, “I wish I had done more to prevent it.”
In his GQ interview, Rogen clarified further, noting there was never any animosity between him and Watson. “Sometimes when you read something, when it comes to life, it doesn’t seem to be what you thought it was.” Wise words from a man who’s seen his fair share of comedic chaos! He even praised Watson for voicing her discomfort, recognizing that it was no small feat for her to stand up in that situation.
Despite the rocky moment, Rogen emphasized that their working relationship wasn’t damaged. “She came back the next day to say goodbye. She helped promote the film. No hard feelings,” he stated. The show must go on, and they both were happy with how This Is the End turned out—an impressive $126M at the box office!
This incident reminds us that things can get too real, even in the light-hearted world of comedy. Rogen’s willingness to acknowledge his missteps shows the importance of communication and respect on set. Watson’s decision to speak up demonstrated strength, proving that even the brightest stars face uncomfortable situations. Who knew the apocalypse could spark such insightful conversations about professionalism and boundaries in Hollywood?
