Seth Rogen is now the official voice of Vancouver's TransLink’s buses and SkyTrains, because why not?
The Vancouver native offered to voice announcements for the city's transportation system after TransLink cut ties with Morgan Freeman — who was originally slated to do the announcements — after he was accused of sexually inappropriate behavior in May.
Freeman's spot was initially a promotion collaboration with Visa, however, the Vancouver Sun notes that Rogen offered to do the announcements for free.
“Mr. Rogen offered to work with TransLink free of charge and we accepted his offer in the pursuit of providing a better customer experience and to share pride in the region,” said TransLink spokesman Steve Vanagas.
Vancouver residents can expect to hear Rogen's announcements next week as they board the transit vehicles, according to Vanagas.
“Any opportunity to enrich the lives of the Canadian people is an opportunity I will take,” says Rogen in the announcement video.
We know it's not likely, but we're praying the announcements are peppered with the actor's iconic chuckles.
