Twitter Cannot Get Over the Premise of Seth Rogen’s New Movie

Move over, Pickle Rick, there's a new pickle coming to town! Seth Rogen is known for making delightfully absurd comedies, and the premise of his next movie is definitely creative. The actor took to social media this week to announce his new film, which is coming to the new streaming service, HBO Max, this summer. Rogen shared the news on both Twitter and Instagram, but gave more plot details on Insta. Since announcing the film, many people have taken to Twitter to express their excitement and curiosity over the new movie.

"I'm thrilled that my next film 'An American Pickle' is coming to HBO Max this summer. I play an immigrant in 1920s New York who falls in a vat of pickles and is brined for 100 years. When I wake up, I seek out my only family, my great-grandson, an app developer named Ben, who I also play in the film. That old story... Can't wait for you to see it. Also, this is an actual Tin Type photo," Rogen shared. You can check out the image below:
