Seth Rogen Had No Idea Who Steve Wozniak

 

Seth Rogen who played Steve Wozniak the co founder of Apple in the movie Steve Jobs says he had no idea who the tech icon was prior to landing the part.

Even though he plays him in the film, Rogen wasn’t worried about getting Wozniak’s approval of his portrayal. Rogen sure knows who Wozniak is now, though, thanks to a “marathon hang session” at Los Angeles’ famed Magic Castle before filming the biopic being praised by critics.

He had this to say to GQ “I’d seen him on that Kathy Griffin reality show. I can’t honestly tell you that I knew there was a co-founder of Apple. I think I thought it was just Steve Jobs. “I think first and foremost I was anxious about Danny and Aaron’s approval, honestly I didn’t even think about whether Wozniak would like it or approve of it. I met with him a bunch of times and I talked with him a lot, but in my head those were all tools to make Danny happy. Me and my wife went with Wozniak and his wife, and we were there for, like, seven hours, “It was truly a marathon hang session. I assume when someone is playing you in a movie there’s probably a certain spiel they want you to have, but fortunately I hung out with him for four hours beyond that spiel.”
