In a unique collaboration, Seth Rogen and Olivia Wilde have found a knack for on-screen shouting matches, most recently in the nationwide release of "The Invite," where their characters, Joe (Rogen) and Angela (Wilde), are at odds. This duo first demonstrated their ability to create tension in the "Missing Reel" episode of "The Studio." The actors, who came of age in Hollywood around the same time but had only crossed paths once before, shared a note after wrapping up "The Invite," with Rogen writing, "I love screaming at you." Wilde spoke about the freedom to express themselves without reservations during filming. Both stars have transitioned from acting to directing and have found success in roles that are more prickly and abrasive than traditional romantic comedies. In "The Invite," Joe and Angela's relationship is already strained when they host dinner for their eccentric neighbors, leading to an explosive night of revelations. Wilde and Rogen discussed the casting process, working with studios, and not taking rejections personally in an interview with The Associated Press.
