Actor: It Would Really Help Careers of Seth Rogen, James Franco if N. Korea Killed Them

Actor Stuns CNN Host: North Korea Killing Rogen and Franco Would Be ‘Great Ending’ to Careers (Mediaite)

This has to be one of the most awkward cable news moments in recent memory.

While discussing the decision of multiple major theater chains to drop The Interview from their film rotation following vague terrorist threats in retaliation for the comedy’s anti-North Korean story, actor Jay Thomas left CNN anchor Brooke Baldwin speechless with this suggestion: If starsSeth Rogen and James Franco are killed in the process of promoting the movie, then it would be a “great ending” to their careers.

The pair have canceled all media appearances for the movie in light of threats from anti-Sony hackers, prompting Thomas to declare that he would’ve defied the ultimatums and made the rounds.
