So happy for James Franco. I grew up watching him as Harry Osborn in the original Spider-Man trilogy, and and it was clear by then, that he was among the most talented in his generation. He definitely deserves all the success he can get, and the Oscar would be fitting, in my opinion :)

[enaberger]

He looks so much better/healthier now - that makes me so happy for him!

Listening this guy, this great actor makes me do anything, any goal i have ‘cause this is so inspirational, motivational. Congratulations for his work in the disaster artist.

He played Peter Parker's best friend Harry Osborn in the Spider-Man Trilogy from 2002 through 2007.

James Franco has his two brothers Dave and Tom Franco.

A profile of James Franco without a single mention of Freaks & Geeks is sadly lacking

I knew when I saw JF in the first spider-man that he was either going to be a BIG star or would go away and not act anymore. I could tell he was picky with his movies.
