Living in the shadows

Unfortunately he will always be living in the shadows of his brother, James Franco. After reviewing the filmography he has appeared in the only recognizable films were "Superbad," "Charlie St. Cloud," "21 Jump Street," "Warm Bodies," "Neighbors," and "22 Jump Street." In the aforementioned films he was only the lead or co-lead in ONE film (Neighbors).

If Dave wants to be taken as a serious actor, he needs to get out of the shadow of his brother.
