Seth Rogen, Jay Chou dish on new 'Green Hornet'


Rogen: "There's a big car chase at the end and we shot a lot of that in front of blue screen. That was difficult because for a week straight, it was just us sitting in a car and people yelling, 'Explosion on the left side!' or 'You're turning right!' And we're leaning all over the place."

Q: Jay does most of the driving in the film. Is that because your driving skills are poor?

Rogen: "I did one day of stunt driving training and I must have not done very well because I didn't get to drive a car again after that. But Jay was a great driver. There were lots of scenes where he was driving with a camera mounted on the hood. They would just send us off to drive around like that. We got some weird looks from people."

Jay: "For me, the challenge was fighting with Seth. To me, he's like my brother and because of that, fighting with him was very strange. I didn't want to kick him, but I had to."

Q: What did you do during your downtime on the set?

Chou: "I'd do some magic tricks."

Rogen: "He does a lot of magic tricks. That's how he'd entertain us. Jay found basketball very quickly in America. He'd go to Venice beach and play there all the time..."

Chou: "...and Rodeo Drive for shopping."

Q: If there's a sequel, what would you like to see in it?

Chou: "Cameron Diaz. More romance for Kato."

Q: Ah yes, Kato has that one scene where he tries to get close to Lenore. She appears to like him a bit.

Chou: "It's my favorite scene in the movie!"

Q: What did you take away or learn from each other that you wouldn't have otherwise?

Chou: "Seth is exactly like what he is on the screen, except he's not dumb."

Rogen: "Good answer! I've been listening to a lot of his music. There's a song of his at the end of the movie and it's awesome."

Jay: "Music is very important in my life. After this movie, I'm going to back to my music and will make a new album."

Q: Has your time in the United States influenced what you put on that album?

Chou: "I will put some English in my new album. Maybe I'll sing in English."

Q: Any duets with Seth?

Rogen: "That would not be a good idea."

Chou: "He's a good rapper, but not a good singer."
