i offered you friendship and you spat in my face

We were like, 'We have to completely rewrite it.' And then this young man came in and stole our hearts, and really just did it, and instantly we were just like, 'Thank God we found him!' He's such a little treat.' We started thinking, We wrote a character that no one in the world can perform properly, and we were literally just gonna change it. 'There is a real Fogell, and when he was around 13 or 14 he acted exactly like the character in the movie. 'When we wrote it, almost every character was based on a real person,' Rogen told E!. Superbad being semi-autobiographical makes it even better, and Rogen said that he and Goldberg 'always hoped' they'd find actors who could bring their sepia-and-profanity-tinted memories to life. 'You could tell he was a kid who probably had seen the inside of a locker,' Jones told the New Yorker.

Rogen recalled to The Ringer in 2017 that it was Jay Baruchel who randomly suggested-'We were in f-king Las Vegas, New Mexico, sitting in a hotel room, smoking weed'-that he put Cera in his movie.Īnd at the audition, Apatow said, 'no one was as funny as Cera.' But after Hill made a quick video of himself reading lines 'and it was just so funny,' Rogen said, 'we were like, 'Oh, we were wrong, he could totally do this very well.'' Still, writer-producer Seth Rogen remembered to GQin 2020 that, as funny as they knew Hill to be from Knocked Up, they originally thought that at 23 he was too old for Superbad. 'She finds us people we want to work with the rest of our lives.' 'Allison doesn't just find us actors,' Apatow, a producer on Superbad, told the New Yorkerin 2015. The filmmaker promptly gave Hill his big break as a strange dude drawn to a pair of disco platforms in The 40-Year-Old Virgin, which led to bigger and better things in the Apatow cinematic universe. Superbad casting director Allison Jones-an Emmy winner for Freaks and Geeks and Veep (twice)-facilitated the first meeting between Hill and Judd Apatow.
