It’s the end of the world, but the cast of The Apocalypse is shaping up fine. Grantland brings word that Aziz Ansari has joined the cast of the upcoming end-times comedy, which will mark Seth Rogen’s directorial debut (alongside Evan Goldberg). He’s the latest addition to an “Apatow all-stars†cast that already includes Rogen, James Franco, Jonah Hill, Jay Baruchel, Danny McBride and Craig Robinson, and what’s more, they’ll all be playing themselves … albeit exaggerated versions of themselves who learn that the world is going to end while partying at Franco’s mansion. Prepare yourself, Aziz: Seth told us that with this project, he hopes to become the best director of all time.
