Seth Rogen Becomes an Alien

Seth Rogen, Jason Bateman, Kristen Wiig, Bill Hader and Jane Lynch will join Simon Pegg and Nick Frost for the film Paul, reports Variety.

Pegg and Frost, who also wrote the script, will play two science fiction fanatics who go on a road trip across America. Their dream turns into reality when they meet Paul, an extra terrestrial who escapes the legendary base Area 51.

Rogen will be the voice behind the alien.

Pegg and Frost have also written Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. The director for Paul will be Greg Mottola (Superbad, Adventureland), and filming will begin next month.

In the meantime, we can next see Seth Rogen in Funny People starting July 31.
