Micheal Cera Fired from Knocked Up
tags:
Stumble ThisNah, he wasn't really fired. But the comedian-run site FunnyOrDie.com nonetheless posted a video where Michael Cera (known best for his role as George Michael Bluth on Arrested Development) auditions for the starring role in Knocked Up – a role that eventually went to Seth Rogen. Considering how un-audition-y the scene is – extras are viewable in the background, Katherine Heigl is present, etc – this "audition" clip is more than likely a clever viral video/marketing ploy for Knocked Up, not unlike the "leaked" deleted scene released a few days back.
The video, viewable below, is funny in a Michael Cera sort of way; he understates everything, makes every sentence perfectly awkward, and somehow remains believable despite the fact that he's talking about having sex with Katherine Heigl, who, in addition to being absurdly hot, is a good decade older than him.

This was obviously done between actual takes on the movie.
Cera's got a part in "Superbad", which I believe the director of "Knocked Up" is producing, hence his appearance here.
a sentence!, a good sentence! that's good on film . . .
brilliant
