Seriously? James Franco?

I intentionally avoided reading about the new Alien film, but after watching the trailer, I've got to say I'm surprised they got James Franco (of all people) to be in this film. Okay, the surprise could have been far worse if someone like Kristen Stewart was in the film (God forbid!)....but seriously...James Franco....in Alien????? 😒

Any one feel the same? 😁

Oh no, tell me it ain't so ... god, I hate that guy.
I like Kristen Stewart though.
How does Franco get into every movie ... does he deal really good drugs
or run some Russian prostitutes or something?

Well in the end he wasn't even in the movie, so phewww!

Relax, they almost virtually cut his entire part out. His career is over. He started turning into such a weird douche some years ago and people got sick of him.

I think it was just to trick the fans, more than anything. And to have extra stuff to put in the dvd when it comes back.
