10 Actors Who Always Play The Same Characters (And Once Where They Didn't)

Seth Rogen is one of the best comedic actors and writers of the 21st century. With his iconic laugh and lovable screen presence, Rogen has starred in Pineapple Express, 50/50, Paul, Sausage Party, The Interview, Knocked Up and dozens more. Seth shines in every film he is in, though that does not save him from playing the same character.

In almost every film Seth Rogen appears in, he plays the foul-mouthed, sarcastic comic relief who smokes too much weed and takes countless other drugs. His roles play right into Rogen's personality, as he is a naturally funny person who is a strong advocate for cannabis legalisation. However, he is trapped in a bed of his own making, as the majority of the roles he is typecast in have been written by himself.

The Exception - Steve Jobs

In the biopic of the late Apple co-founder, Rogen played Steve Wozniak, Steve Jobs' less publicised partner. In a brilliantly nuanced performance, Seth shocked many audiences in playing a genuinely different character to his usual work - and his role demonstrated how varied Seth Rogen's range as an actor is, even if these performances come around far too irregularly to break his typecasting.
