Rogen said that he has been intrigued by the idea of actors playing themselves in films, and James Franco was on board with the concept from the get-go. "I just felt like the character of James Franco would be just more interesting and less of a cartoon if he had that kind of affection for Seth, »

Seth Rogen: 'Zac Efron is incredibly handsome'
2 May 2013 4:23 AM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »
Seth Rogen has joked that he has a crush on his co-star Zac Efron.
The duo will appear in the upcoming comedy Townies and Rogen admitted that he thinks Efron is "incredibly handsome".
"He's the sexiest **** on the planet!" Rogen said, according to People.
Rogen joked that Efron's good looks could sometimes be an issue, saying: "I did a scene with him and we're both shirtless, and it was a very humbling experience. I marveled at the fact that we're literally the same species."
However, he said that it's not all bad, claiming that he is "hairier" than Efron and adding: "[Zac's] very veiny. I'm not that veiny."
Townies will also star Craig Roberts, Rose Byrne, Dave Franco, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Jake Johnson and Lisa Kudrow. »

Zac Efron's Frat Adds Submarine's Craig Roberts For Townies
24 April 2013 12:57 AM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
Not enough people have watched 2010.s offbeat coming-of-age dramedy Submarine, the first feature film directed by British comedian/writer Richard Ayoade. A handful of the best, as well as zaniest British sitcoms of the past ten years have featured Ayoade in some capacity, and Submarine was a nice subdued version of his talents. On top of that its young star Craig Roberts turned out a brilliant performance, drawing comedy out of pathos as well as situational bits. Roberts should definitely add something different to the usual suspects of Nicholas Stoller.s upcoming comedy Townies, which already stars such names as Seth Rogen and Zac Efron, and recently added Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Dave Franco and Rose Byrne to the cast. The plot . which sounds like something these guys are doing on a dare . concerns an ordinary family man (Rogen) and his wife (Byrne) whose life is becoming a constant Hell thanks to »

'Submarine' Star Craig Roberts Joins 'Townies' With Seth Rogen & Zac Efron
23 April 2013 4:32 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
Nicholas Stoller’s “Townies,” announced last May, will pit Seth Rogen in an against-type role as a suburban family man against Zac Efron in an against-type role as a rowdy frat boy, two casting choices that we find positively titillating. News that Dave Franco and Christopher Mintz-Plasse had signed on broke last month, upping the ante. And now it seems that another potential frat brother has been cast. Craig Roberts, who some will recognize from Richard Ayoade’s directorial debut “Submarine,” is currently filming the project according to his talent agent, Curtis Brown. Roberts has also played smaller roles in “Jane Eyre” and the little-seen “Red Lights," but in "Submarine," he showed a sensitive and sly comic touch, which might be a nice texture to add in the mix here. We know that sticking a bunch of funny people in one place isn’t necessarily a recipe for comedy genius, »

That's it, Hollywood. Feel the burn!
Many celebrities are known for their lean physiques; they're certainly in shape but not exactly what you would call "huge." Others are have made a career out of being super-skinny or pleasantly plump. But imagine what some of these stars would look like if they suddenly went the route of the cast of "Pain & Gain," eatin' several pounds of steak and chicken and rice all day and all night and pumping iron like there's no tomorrow.
It's hard to picture beanpoles like Anne Hathaway, James Franco, Robert Pattinson, Angelina Jolie and Will Smith, scrawny fellas like Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Michael Cera and an endearingly overweight dude like Zach Galifianakis suddenly becoming bodybuilder-big, isn't it? So let us do the picturing for you. In the immortal words of Eric Cartman, "Beefcake!"
