Getty Seth Rogen is looking back at Anne Hathaway dropping out of Knocked Up . If you forgot, Seth , 44, starred alongside Katherine Heigl in the 2007 rom-com, which was directed, written, and produced by Judd Apatow . Anne , 43, was originally cast to star opposite Seth , but she later quit the project before filming began and that’s when Katherine , 47, was cast. While appearing on The A24 Podcast alongside his The Invite co-star and director Olivia Wilde , Seth shared more details about why Anne quit the movie. Olivia had also auditioned for the female lead in Knocked Up , but didn’t get the part. “It was Anne Hathaway who quit the movie,” Seth began. “Because of the crowning right? Is that real?” asked Olivia , referring to the graphic birthing scene. “Yeah, I mean… it could have been a hundred million things. That was what I remember being told,” Seth responded. “Crowning is a tough one. She didn’t want the crowning of the baby to be visually representative. Even though it wasn’t going to be hers… It’s obviously not real.” “But she didn’t even want…she felt that it was not her brand,” the Emmy-winning actor continued. “Part of me also… we had started rehearsing the movie… maybe she was just like, ‘I don’t know if this is for me.’ I don’t know. I will take what she said at face value, which was the crowning.” Seth added, “She had a sense, and she knew it was not for her. And history will tell… she has been right about a lot more things than I have over the years. So I think she was probably right. [Heigl] knew what was right for her, yes. And then Heigl was great. Katie Heigl was great.” Back in 2008, Katherine looked back at Knocked Up and took issue with its presentation of women .
