"Seth Rogen has said he is hopeful that 50/50 screenwriter Will Reiser will win an Academy Award. The actor declared that Reiser, who based 50/50 on his own cancer battle, deserves to hear his name called when the Oscar nominations are announced on January 24. &amp;quot;I think Will, honestly, has the best shot of being nominated out of anyone with the movie,&amp;quot; Rogen told Vulture. Rogen recalled that his one major award nod was being nominated for his writing on Da Ali G Show, but the prize ultimately went to The Daily Show. The comic joked about the likelihood of ever receiving an award, saying: &amp;quot;I feel like if I won an award and I was giving my speech and the music started, that&amp;#039;s all I&amp;#039;d remember, the humiliation I felt when the music started. It would mar the entire experience for me.&amp;quot; Rogen will host the upcoming Independent Spirit Awards on February 25. He has also apparently signed on to produce and potentially star in the Disney film The B Team. &amp;gt; Seth Rogen hints at Pineapple Express 2 &amp;gt; Joseph Gordon-Levitt: &amp;#039;Seth Rogen called me in dire straits for 50/50&amp;#039; Watch Seth Rogen and Will Reiser discuss 50/50 with Digital Spy below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
