Seth Rogen clarifies that Emma Watson DID NOT walk off the set of This Is The End

Seth Rogen has ‘corrected’ comments that Emma Watson ‘stormed off the set’ of his 2013 movie, This Is The End.   

Last week, the 38-year-old actor appeared to confirm the rumours in an interview with GQ, but he has since stated that it was a ‘false narrative’. 

The Superbad star went on to take the blame for putting Watson in an ‘uncomfortable position’ during an improvised scene, that they then resolved together in an amicable matter.

Seth explained in a Twitter post: ‘I want to correct a story that has emerged from a recent interview I gave. It misrepresents what actually happened. Emma Watson did not ‘storm off the set’ and it’s sh****y that the perception is that she did.

‘The scene was not what was originally scripted, it was getting improvised, changed drastically and was not what she agreed to. The narrative that she was in some way uncool or unprofessional is complete bull***t.

‘I for sure should have communicated better and because I didn’t, she was put in an uncomfortable position,’ Rogen continued.

He added that they spoke on the night of filming the scene, adding, ‘it was overall a sh***y situation and it must have been hard for her to say something and I’m very happy and impressed that she did. We agreed on her not being in the scene together.’

‘I was thrilled for the opportunity to work with her and would be thrilled to get that opportunity again. I am very sorry and disappointed it happened, and I wish I had done more to prevent it,’ he concluded.

In the original interview with GQ UK, Rogen responded to the interviewer bringing up the rumor Watson ‘stormed off’ by, saying: ‘I mean, I don’t look back on that and think, “How dare she do that?” You know? 

‘I think sometimes when you read something, when it comes to life it doesn’t seem to be what you thought it was. 

‘But it was not some terrible ending to our relationship. She came back the next day to say goodbye. She helped promote the film. 

‘No hard feelings and I couldn’t be happier with how the film turned out in the end.’   

This Is the End, which marked the directing debut for both Rogen and his collaborator Evan Goldberg, was set at a party at James Franco’s house, with Rogen, Franco and the slew of other celebs playing heightened versions of themselves.

During the party, an apocalyptic attack takes place, as the stars fortified themselves at Franco’s house, with Watson returning to the home after the original attack.

She ultimately took off with their supplies after hearing a conversation that got out of hand, and she wasn’t seen again.

Towards the end of the film, Rogen, Franco and Jay Baruchel encounter Danny McBride, who has become the leader of an apocalyptic cannibal gang, and it seems Watson was originally going to be a part of that scene.

This Is The End earned strong reviews from critics (83% on Rotten Tomatoes) and it was a modest hit at the box office earning $126 million worldwide from a $32 million budget.
