"textContent": "Rumours claiming that Seth Rogen has died at the age of 44 have spread widely online, but there is no evidence to support the claim.\n\nThe false reports began circulating on April 29, with social media posts alleging the actor had been “tragically found dead”. Many of these posts featured black-and-white images and were shared by accounts later identified as parody or unverified sources.\n\n## Where did the rumour start?\n\nThe claim appears to have originated from obscure websites and social media accounts, including at least one self-described parody account. Some of the sites spreading the rumour were newly created and designed to mimic legitimate news outlets.\n\nDespite lacking credible sourcing, the posts quickly gained traction and were widely shared.\n\n## No confirmation from credible sources\n\nSearches across major news platforms show no verified reports confirming Rogen’s death. There has also been no statement from his representatives or family.\n\nThe actor’s social media accounts show no indication of any such incident, further undermining the claims.\n\nThe rumour appears to have been fuelled in part by online discussions referencing a fictional character death linked to the series _The Boys_ , leading some users to misinterpret the context.\n\n## Not the first time\n\nThis is not the first time Rogen has been the subject of a viral death hoax. A similar false claim circulated in 2021 before being debunked.\n\nSuch rumours continue to spread rapidly on social media, often gaining attention before being verified.\n\nThere is currently no evidence that Seth Rogen has died.\n\nThe post Is Seth Rogen dead?
