If you're like most people, you probably know James Franco best as the goofy comic
actor from «Pineapple Express,» «This Is the End,» «The Interview» and the like, or the intense
dramatic actor who earned an Oscar nomination for «127 Hours,» played «Spider - Man's» best friend / nemesis in Sam Raimi's movies and headlined an
acclaimed James Dean TV biopic after getting his start on «Freaks and Geeks.»
Though primarily a comedic
actor, he garnered considerable critical
acclaim for his
dramatic turn in Requiem for a Dream (2000).
