Lulu Garcia Navarro

As I was preparing for this interview, I was looking at your list of credits.

And, you know, it's just astonishing when you sort of sit with it, producing the hit superhero series, The Boys, acting in The Invite, voicing Kung Fu Panda, Platonic, the studio.

I mean, there's just like a lot there.

And I was recently watching Judd Apatow's excellent documentary on Mel Brooks.

Oh, yeah.

And thinking...

that you're our generation's Mel Brooks.

I mean, you've already made comedies that have sort of defined a generation.

You're only 44.

I mean, is he someone that you've modeled your career on?

Who turned it down?

Seth Rogen, thank you so much.

We'll speak again.

After the break, I talk to Seth again and ask him about AI.

Seth Rogen, so glad to talk to you again.

We're back.

All right.

In our first conversation, we talked about opportunities for young people coming up in Hollywood and how the industry has changed and possibly, you know, someone like you wouldn't have the same sort of opportunities to make movies today.
