Seth Rogen missed out on a role in Eminem’s hit movie 8 Mile because he started giggling during his audition.
The 39-year-old recalled the incident in a chapter of his new memoir Yearbook, in which he revealed he had gone for the role of Cheddar Bob in the 2002 musical drama.
Rogen explained that he auditioned twice for the film, because he failed to impress the casting director with his "rappery" dialogue on his first attempt, and was told to bring someone with him to the second audition.
In an interview with Insider, he opened up on the incident and said he brought his Knocked Up co-star Jason Segel to his second audition, but Rogen confessed he struggled to execute his lines and director Curtis Hanson eventually picked someone else.
