Seth Rogen's production company Point Grey is teaming up with legendary producer Scott Rudin to produce a movie that will star Workaholics' stars Anders Holm, Adam DeVine and Blake Anderson.

Seth Rogen is getting ready to take his first regular TV job since Undeclared ended over a decade ago. THR reports that Rogen and his comedy partner Evan Godlberg have sold a pilot for a new animated series about Bigfoot to FX. Rogen and Goldberg will serve as executive producers on the series, which is aptly titled Bigfoot.
Based on author Graham Roumieu's faux-autobiographical books on sasquatch, Bigfoot will follow the beast as a well-mannered, civilized everyman grappling with his animal ways. Matt McKenna, who has been a writer for American Dad since the show began, is creating the show.

Comedy's reigning princes Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel, James Franco, Jonah Hill, Craig Robinson, and Danny McBride star in this rambunctious feature, which hits [...]
