Rogen and his longtime collaborator Evan Goldberg wrote the script
together. The two met as adolescents on the Vancouver bar mitzvah
circuit and began writing Superbad when they were just 13. (It was
released in 2006.)

Because of their Jewish backgrounds, the two thought it was a funny
notion that if you're good you go to heaven, that if you're bad you go
to hell, and that — for some Christians — being Jewish qualifies as
"bad."

While the comedians used Revelation as a jumping-off point, they did
take some liberties.

“ 'Lord of the Rings' got nothing on this.
- Evan Goldberg
"It's all up to interpretation!" says Goldberg. "We used to have on
the script, 'Based on the book by God.' "

Rogen, who's also starred in the TV show Freaks and Geeks and the film
Knocked Up, says the imagery in This Is The End is plucked directly
from the New Testament.

"All the ideas — the sinkholes, the smoke ... the hills on fire, are
stuff from the actual Bible, which we did read!" Rogen says. "And in
reading [it, we were] like, 'Crazy. This is unbelievable!' "

"Yeah," says Goldberg, who also collaborated with Rogen on Pineapple
Express. "Lord of the Rings got nothing on this."
