Vince Vaughn on the Real Reason He Stopped Making Comedies

During an appearance on Hot Ones, Wedding Crashers star Vince Vaughn revealed he rarely appears in comedies anymore because—according to him—Hollywood is scared of producing the raunchy R-rated fare on which he made his name.

After his debut in 1998’s Swingers, Vaughn became a consistent presence in R-rated comedies like Old School and Wedding Crashers. Those movies launched the succession of uber-raunchy, Judd Apatow and Seth Rogen-influenced “bromances” that were ubiquitous in the early aughts.
