Bio
James Franco is an actor hailing from California. After having a bit part in the 1999 film Never Been Kissed (starring Drew Barrymore), James was cast in the critically acclaimed, but short-lived NBC show, Freaks and Geeks. Soon after, James appeared in the TNT movie about James Dean, in which Franco played the famous actor. James not only fit the part physically (as he bears a remarkable resemblence to James Dean); he was nominated for an Emmy award, and won a Golden Globe for his portrayal of the late actor. James next starred as Harry Osborn, in the 2002 hit Spider-man. Following Spider-man, James played Robert DeNiro's son in City by the Sea. James reprised the role of Harry Osborn in 2004, in Spider-Man 2. In 2005, James made his directorial debut with the film, The Ape. He's also starred in several military films, such as The Great Raid, Annapolis, and Flyboys. He's also appeared in the period drama, Tristan and Isolde. James returned as Harry Osborn in Spider-Man 3 in May 2007. James next role is The Pineapple Express, where he reunites with one of his co-stars from Freaks and Geeks, Seth Rogen.
James Franco is a really fantastic actor. I first noticed James in Spider-man. Besides being adorable, he had something about him that just made you want to watch him. James is insanely talented, and puts himself 100% into his roles. He also picks roles that actually mean something to him, rather than films that may be more popular. He's also known as being a method actor, as he throws himself completely into a film project. It shows in his work, and it's always enjoyable to watch him onscreen, even if the rest of the film isn't so great. My favorite James projects are his roles in James Dean and Freaks and Geeks, but I love watching him in the Spider-man movies.
