Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne are used to playing a married couple on screen, but how did they feel about starring as friends in their latest TV series “Platonic”?

Rogen and Byrne recently spoke to ET Canada’s Keshia Chanté about their new Apple TV+ show, in which they star as former BFFs — Will and Sylvia — who end up reconnecting as adults.

Fans will remember that the pair starred in the “Neighbours” movies together as married couple Mac and Kelly Radner. Byrne said as we questioned whether the actors preferred playing a couple or friends, “It’s just different,” as Rogen added, “It’s just a little different, yeah.” READ MORE: Seth Rogen Reveals He’s Secretly A Great Dancer “I think there’s less affection in general,” the Canadian actor laughed, adding: “You can walk away… my character just cleanses his hands of the whole situation from time to time.

Which you can’t do if you’re a married couple.” Pointing out you can’t just tell the wife to “deal with your s**t” if you’re married to them, he went on: “It’s fun doing both, you know?” Byrne admitted, “It was different, though… I realized, ‘Oh, I can’t do that this time.’ It’s just a different dynamic, but it was fun.” READ MORE: Seth Rogen Is ‘Not Interested’ In Buying A Sports Team: ‘I Wouldn’t Know What To Do With It’ Elsewhere in the chat, the pals spoke about co-producing the series together.
