"No, he's not a hero in any way that you would expect him to be a hero, in any way, shape or form," the actor revealed when quizzed about the character he plays in the movie, Britt Reid. "He's really not that awesome when you meet him, I have to say."
"He's kind of douchebag. A somewhat entertaining douchebag, but a douchebag all the same."
Rogen, who also wrote the screenplay with his writing partner Evan Goldberg, went on to say the film take something of a different approach to usual superhero movies as Kato is not just a sidekick, but an equally important part of the story: "There are two guys out there, risking their lives, getting shot at - and one of them is the sidekick? Let's be clear about this, Batman and Robin do exactly the same thing."
"In our approach, the relationship is the superpower. Alone these guys are kind of nothing, but together they're able to accomplish things that no mere mortal ever could."
Directed by Michel Gondry, The Green Hornet is set to be released in 3D on January 14, 2011 and also stars Jay Chou, Cameron Diaz and Christoph Waltz.
