Seth Rogen has signed on to star in the comedy Observe and Report which will be directed by Jody Hill. Hill co-wrote, directed, produced and appears The Foot Fist Way, which will be released May 30 in New York and Los Angeles before expanding June 6.
Observe and Report centers on Ronnie Barnhardt, a deluded, self-important head of mall security who squares off in a turf war against the local cops. Hill also wrote the screenplay.
Rogen and Judd Apatow saw Hill's The Foot Fist Way, at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival, and invited him to the set of Knocked Up. Rogen and Hill struck up a friendship and Hill played a small role in Superbad.
