Seth Rogen Explains Why His ‘Gigli’ Audition Tape Would “End My Career” If It Leaked

More than 20 years after the movie that launched Bennifer, Seth Rogen recently recalled his audition for 2003's 'Gigli'.

The 3x Golden Globe nominee explained that he was “an aspiring young actor” when he auditioned for the role of mentally challenged hostage Brian, who was ultimately portrayed by Justin Bartha in the Ben Affleck/ Jennifer Lopez romantic comedy crime flick. Explaining that he was eager to work with the film’s “great director” Martin Brest, Rogen said, “I wanted to leave an impression.” The Studio star definitely dodged a bullet, as the movie barely surpassed $7 million globally, currently holding a 6% Tomatometer score on Rotten Tomatoes.
