“Seth Rogen Reveals the Surprising Film He Calls His Masterpiece – You Won’t Believe His Choice!”
Seth Rogen—what a guy! If comedy films had their own version of King Midas, he’d be sitting on the throne, turning every role into a cult classic. Seriously, whenever I’m searching for a hearty laugh—be it through tears or from laughing too hard—Rogen’s sheer brilliance comes to the rescue. And this begs the question: with such an esteemed body of work, what’s Rogen’s personal favorite? Is it the uproarious antics of “Pineapple Express” or the heartfelt charm of “Knocked Up”? Well, you’re in for a treat because I managed to catch up with him recently at the glamorous UK premiere of “Mufasa: The Lion King.” While this comedic titan donned the persona of Pumbaa for this new venture, he also took a whirlwind trip down memory lane to discuss his most cherished projects. So, let’s dive in and find out which gem sits at the top of his list! LEARN MORE.
Seth Rogen has got the Midas Touch when it comes to comedy films, as pretty much every one he has been a part of is considered a cult classic.
We’ve all turned to his cinematic catalogue when we have been in need of a good chuckle, because you know that you’re guaranteed a good laugh.
As a result, everyone has got their favourite Rogen film – but have you ever wondered which movie the man himself reckons is his best piece of work?
If you have ever found yourself daydreaming about this, you’re in luck, as LADbible has managed to find out which project he is most proud of. Take a look at this:
One of our lovely LADs managed to steal a minute with Rogen while he walked the red carpet in London for the UK premiere of Mufasa: The Lion King on Wednesday (11 December).
The comedian stars as the loveable warthog Pumbaa in the highly anticipated prequel, alongside the likes of Beyonce, her daughter Blue Ivy, Donald Glover and Aaron Pierre.
But while he was in the Big Smoke to promote the film – which will be released in cinemas on 20 December – Rogen took the time to reflect on his other past roles.
The 42-year-old took part in a game of ‘This or That’ and had to choose between two movies he has starred in.
By a process of elimination, we eventually got to the bottom of what Rogen’s favourite flick is.
He was first presented with the rom-com Knocked Up and The Interview, which he starred in alongside James Franco – and he went with the former.
So Knocked Up stayed on, but not for long, as Rogen admitted Pineapple Express knocked the 2007 film with Katherine Heigl out of the park.

“Pineapple Express was really fun,” he beamed.
Although it’s a TV series rather than a movie, Freaks and Geeks was then thrown into the mix.
“Freaks and Geeks was great,” Rogen said, before explaining it also beat the 2011 sci-fi movie Paul which he starred in alongside Simon Pegg, in his eyes.
However, there is one film which the funnyman considers to be even better than his beloved series about misfit high school students.
When Superbad was presented to him as an option, Rogen revealed that he ranked the comedy far above the rest of his projects.
Even when he was asked whether The Lion King or Mufasa: The Lion King could knock it off the top spot, the comedian said it was still a no-brainer.
Remaining steadfast in his decision, Rogen replied: “Even though I’m at the Lion King premiere, I’m going to say Superbad. I’m going to keep it real on that one.”
He then burst into his trademark chuckle, before clarifying that he still thought Mufasa: The Lion King was ‘great’.

Film fans seemed to agree, as they flooded the comment section on TikTok with their thoughts.
One said: “Superbad is one of the greatest movies of all time.”
Another wrote: “I agreed with all his answers.”
A third added: “Superbad is legendary. Wish I could go back in time and watch it for the first time as a kid in high school.”
And a fourth chimed in: “Superbad easily goes in the top five best comedies ever made.”
Rogen crafted the screenplay for the 2007 teen comedy with his best friend, Evan Goldberg, and the pair based it off of their own experiences at high school.
So thanks very much to whoever attended Rogen’s high school, as you were the perfect muses who allowed him to create one of the most iconic comedies of all time.
