I adore his laugh as millions do. Never doubt a mother's love and at least she was willing to try. 🙏

[@cooljt1998]

I love when comedic actors get the opportunity to play serious roles. He was so good in Steve Jobs I’m sure he’ll be excellent in the fablemans

[@Jonalisa754]

He played the part absolutely perfectly so good actually he stole the show

What I appreciate about Seth is that his skill as an actor, his comedic prowess, and his directing all got better as he aged. He keeps getting better.

[@Jiishaan]

He changed a lot but his laugh will remain the same 🤣

[@eljefe308]

I’ve always loved Seth Rogen’s more grounded/relatable humor.

I remember when I spent years on dialysis always taking the subway in Toronto and one day Seth Rogan was talking on the TTC announcer to all us pedestrians and it just cheered me up after dialysis. I just sat in the subway platform for a while listening to to weird silly things he said. I’m thankful for that memory fosho!

[@aftersexhighfives]

Seth aging like smokey whiskey. 😍

Seth is looking like a stud and I’m here for it!

[@geoffreyfeinberg9792]

Seth Rogen is a good comedic actor. Also changed a lot since Knocked up and Superbad. My 2 favorites. Don't forget Pineapple Express. Even though he's known for his raunchy pot headed humor, he can pull off play serious roles. Can't wait for Fabelmans. Looks Oscar worthy.

[@beattrixkiddo2725]

He writes a lot of the movies he’s in too which makes his performances even better to me.

[@BonesRodriguez]

Man, this was just so damn enjoyable.

I laughed but that’s actually a great observation!

[@John-ct9zs]

It's been weird seeing this guy go from a high school kid in the late 90s to a healthy looking, greying 40 year old man today. But he's basically the same guy, just more mature in appearance and behavior.

[@beazrich2.017]

Seth Rogan still has a full head of hair at the age of 40. Slight thinning but thinning itself isn’t always a sign of balding.

[@isaiahm6005]

This man has always been a gem. He’s looking great these days!
