Adam Brody is glad hit show The OC has come to a close, because he had no choice but to test himself in other roles.

The 27-year-old played Seth Cohen on the teen drama between 2003 and 2006 and loved his job so much, he admits he needed a push to seek fresh challenges.

He is now looking to make more movies after earning good reviews for his performances in Thank You For Smoking and Mr & Mrs Smith.
