James Franco movie 'sucks', It's pretty obvious that James Franco has a sense of humor about, well, James Franco.
The actor's indie filmmaker and artist persona often leaves people
scratching their heads, but he's not afraid to have a little fun with
it.
“My public persona is something that is only partially constructed by
me, so if people want to mock that, it’s fine. I mock it," Franco tells
GQ magazine.
The "Oz: The Great and Powerful" lead graces the June cover of the
magazine (its annual comedy issue) and shares that even his close
friends have fun with his fractured image.
Buddy Seth Rogen penned a part for James in the forthcoming apocalypse
comedy "This Is The End," in which Franco plays a version of himself.
"When I first read the script ... the James Franco character was -- I
guess the only way to describe it is he was a lot d**chier than the
version that we came up with. I was the materialistic guy. They were
really playing up the Gucci-modeling aspect of my life," Franco said.
Hopefully they've toned it down for the romp, which co-stars Jonah Hill,
Craig Robinson, Danny McBride, and features cameos from Rihanna and
Emma Watson.
And while Franco has proven he can do comedy as well artsy fare, some experiences are no laughing matter.
"'Your Highness'? That movie sucks," Franco said of his widely panned medieval flick with McBride and Natalie Portman.
