HBO Max’s ‘An American Pickle’ is now streaming and maybe Seth Rogen’s best outing as an actor. Rogen catches a lot of flack for his style of comedy and the iconic laugh, but this show may showcase something we didn’t know about the actor. While there seems to be a fair amount of comedy on the show, he also has to ability to play straight and serious.
So serious in fact, that the movie had to be shot a very unique way as he actually grew out his beard for the role as Herschel.

“Seth Rogen was so dedicated to growing a real beard to play Herschel that the movie had to be shot in some very unique ways. Director Brandon Trost discusses the shooting process and the interesting on set creative solutions in this featurette.”
