LOS ANGELES — Despite his long-established reputation of playing put-upon nice guys, Seth Rogen wants to make it clear: He does not want you to like him this time. He doesn't even like him this time.
"I think a lot of people feel like they have to like the people they are playing," Rogen says. "Oh, God, I don't at all. Like, I do not like him."
The gregarious, engaged producer and co-star of "Pam & Tommy" is enjoying his first Emmy nomination for acting. He was a driving force in the creation of the double-digit-nominated limited series springing from a Rolling Stone article by Amanda Chicago Lewis about Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee's infamous sex tape made public.
