2d ago· 3 min readenNews

Summary

Seth Rogen revealed that Anne Hathaway dropped out of the 2007 film "Knocked Up" because the script included graphic crowning footage during the birth scene. According to Rogen, Hathaway was concerned about how the explicit birthing imagery would affect her "princess" image at the time, as she was known for roles in films like "The Princess Diaries" and "The Devil Wears Prada." The role eventually went to Katherine Heigl.
