Seth Rogen’s death rumor began trending on social media on April 29, 2026, but he is alive and well. The actor celebrated his 44th birthday just two weeks prior, on April 15. No credible media outlets reported his death.
The rumor originated from a fake article published by PageShartt. It quickly spread across various platforms, fueled by social media users sharing the false news. Seth Rogen’s representatives stated, “He joins the long list of celebrities who this hoax has victimized. He’s still alive and well. Stop believing what you see on the Internet.”
This is not the first time Rogen has faced such rumors. A similar celebrity death hoax targeted him in August 2021. His active social media accounts show no announcement of his supposed demise.
Seth Rogen is known for his roles in popular films like Knocked Up, Pineapple Express, and Superbad. He has also collaborated with Evan Goldberg on several major comedy hits. Rogen has been married to Lauren Miller Rogen since 2011, and they have maintained a strong Hollywood relationship.
Observers note that these types of incidents can cause significant distress among fans and loved ones. The claim not only shocked fans but also went viral in no time. The rumor was preceded by a post on Reddit claiming that the actor’s character on The Boys died.
