Emma Watson walked off set of This Is The End after refusing to film disgusting scene

Seth Rogen said she was right to do so

When it comes to films like This is The End, most actors have a fairly good idea of what they’re signing up for.

Whether it be Channing Tatum in a gimp suit, the numerous shot at every single actor's career with them playing themselves, or just one of the many, many weird scenes in the film, the actors were pushed to their limits of comfort comedically.

For those who live under a rock, This is The End follows a group of Hollywood celebrities, all of whom are playing heightened versions of themselves.

James Franco, Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel, Craig Robinson, Jonah Hill, and Danny McBride star in the film, and try to survive the end of the world.

From Rogen and his fellow Superbad co-creator Evan Goldberg, the film has developed a cult following and managed to rake in over $125 million when it came out in 2013.

One actor who didn’t quite enjoy the male-focused and sometimes crude humour of the film, however, was Emma Watson.

Watson, who did make a small appearance in the film, walked off the set of the film, a move which Seth Rogen later said she was right to do.

The Harry Potter actor reportedly refused to film a scene involving Channing Tatum in a gimp mask being walked on a chain by a now cannibalistic Danny McBride.

Whilst unclear what the scene involving Watson would have entailed, a final version of this did end up making the film without her in it.

Rogen said in an interview with GQ in 2021: “I mean, I don't look back on that and think: 'How dare she do that?' You know?

"I think sometimes when you read something, when it comes to life, it doesn't seem to be what you thought it was.

"But it was not some terrible ending to our relationship. She came back the next day to say goodbye.

“She helped promote the film.

"No hard feelings and I couldn't be happier with how the film turned out in the end."

"She was probably right. It was probably funnier the way we ended up doing it."

The film is fairly batsh*t, so it is relatively shocking that they got all the celebrities they did to agree to it.

In previous interviews, Evan Goldberg said he made it a goal of his to get actors to say ‘no’ on set, and the only holdouts throughout filming was James Franco and Seth Rogen.
