Seth Rogan said it was like

Funnyman Seth Rogan said it was like “winning the lottery” when Adam Sandler first agreed to star in something he had written.

The 27-year-old actor, who is best known for his roles in comedies such as Superbad and Pineapple Express, first met Sandler, 42, when he was in his late teens during the television series Undeclared.

Rogan wrote one episode of the series and co-wrote a number of others and said it was a great honour to have Sandler appear.

He said: “It was the thrill of a lifetime to have Adam Sandler agree to appear in something you wrote. As a write[r] who’s trying to get started, that’s like winning the lottery.”

Funny People, starring both comedians, hits UK cinemas on August 28.
