Everybody wants access into WE Day. But first, they have to get through Seth Rogen.

As the countdown begins for the charity event's national broadcast later this month on ABC, E! News has obtained a star-studded promo of the big day. In the clip, Seth is in charge of determining who is and isn't deserving of a ticket into the philanthropic event. Let's just say you really have to earn your way.

"Hey, you stop right there child," Seth tells an enthusiastic Jacob Tremblay. "You're are nine years old. What have you done to deserve to get into WE Day?" "Ummm, I'm Canadian," the Room actor jokes.

Newlywed Ciara earns her way as the official voice of WE Day while Martin Sheen already has status as a VIP. When Tyrese Gibson steps forward, however, there's one task he must complete before receiving access. As it turns out, Seth needs a fresh new voicemail for the summer.

"What's up y'all. Seth is too fast, too furious to get to the phone right now," he repeats. "So ride along and he'll get back to you. Until then, auto box roll out."

Perhaps the best guest of them all comes from the loveable Gonzo. While the Muppets character isn't sure he is worthy of such an event, Seth is quick to point out all the good he has done for kids around the world. 

"Stop lying to yourself Gonzo. We all know you're incredible," Seth shares. "You're a role model to a lot of people who don't fit in."

Gonzo replies, "You know this could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

WE Day is a celebration of youth making a difference in their local and global communities. The event brings together world-renowned speakers and award-winning performers with tens of thousands of young people to celebrate their contributions and kick-start another year of change. Fans can get inspired and watch the broadcast when WE Day airs on Sunday, August 28  at 7 p.m. ET/6 p.m. CT only on ABC.
