Vancouver-raised funnyman Seth Rogen will soon be tagging along on SkyTrain routes, as he becomes the new voice for TransLink.
In a video post on Twitter Thursday morning, the actor said he grew up taking public transit his whole life and continues to use it when visiting the city.
鈥淎n opportunity to enrich the lives of the Canadian people is an opportunity I will take,鈥� Rogen said, followed by his iconic laugh.
I鈥橫 GONNA BE THE VOICE ON PUBLIC TRANSIT IN MY HOMETOWN OF VANCOUVER.

In May, TransLink unveiled that Morgan Freeman would along SkyTrain routes, but after allegations of sexual assault surfaced against the actor.
Rogen was quick to offer his services at that time.
Yo if they need a replacement now let me know.

Rogen volunteered his time to record announcements on train etiquette and TransLink paid for the studio space and editing services.
Commuters will hear Rogen鈥檚 voice as early as next week.
