Seth Rogen was seen in a convertible while filming his latest comedy series The Studio which is now in its third month of shooting across the Los Angeles region.
After having commenced on the production in late March, the actor and comedian was spotted filming a car scene along the iconic Hollywood Blvd. with co-star Ike Barinholtz in the early morning hour on Friday.
Rogen, 42, could be seen in the driver’s seat of an old convertible sports car while stopped at a red light in Hollywood dressed in a brown blazer and red dress shirt.
He had a serious look on his face as Barinholtz sat in the passenger’s seat exuding a big smile while looking like he had just been laughing out loud.
The former star of The Mindy Project, 47, appeared to be well-dressed in a black suit and a matching shirt for their outdoors scene together.

The Studio looks to be a passion project of sorts for Rogen considering that he writes, produces, directs and stars in episodes for the upcoming Apple TV+ production.
The series centers around a legacy Hollywood studio that’s struggling to keep up with technology and how fast it shapes movies and TV, according to Collider.
It’s believed Rogen will play a studio executive and/or producer who’s feeling the pressure of losing his business that’s struggling to survive and maintain a balance between art and commerce.
Along with Rogen and Barinholtz, the stellar main cast also includes Catherine O’Hara, Kathryn Hahn and Chase Sui Wonders.
It’s also been revealed that some of the high-profile guest stars will feature the likes of Bryan Cranston, Keyla Monterroso Mejia and Dewayne Perkins.
Rogen and longtime friend and collaborator Evan Goldberg, 41, created the new series along with Frida Perez, Peter Huyck and Alex Gregory.
The duo worked together in several successful projects such as the comedy film This Is The End (2013), the adult animated superhero series Invincible (2021-present), and the animated superhero film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem (2023).
On top of writing and directing The Studio, Rogen and Goldberg will also serve as executive producers along with Perez, Huyck, Gregory, as well as Alex McAtee and Josh Fagen.
