After years of hiding away like a mythical creature, James Franco has finally emerged from his cave of obscurity! The 46-year-old, who you might remember from those Golden Globe speeches that went on for way too long, was caught in action on a movie set. Yes, you read that right—he’s back to work!
James was seen on Saturday (July 13) in the bustling metropolis of Columbus, Georgia, filming his latest flick, “The Razor’s Edge.” And guess what? He’s not doing it alone. Joining him in this action-packed extravaganza is none other than the grumpy grandpa of Hollywood, Tommy Lee Jones! We can only imagine the on-set banter: “Get off my lawn, Franco!”
Now, for those of you who need a plot summary faster than you can say “Hollywood comeback,” here’s what Deadline had to say: “After a mob hitman swears off his murdery ways, he’s thrown into a pickle when his daughter gets snatched and his lady love is next on the bad guys’ hit list. Our hero has to saddle up for one last mission—cue the dramatic music—while dodging an assassin who’s even scarier than the IRS.”
But wait, there’s more! Franco didn’t just ghost the movie scene for a dramatic return. He took a sabbatical after a handful of women came forward with accusations that made Harvey Weinstein seem like a saint in comparison. The Los Angeles Times spilled the tea in January 2018, and things got messier than a reality TV reunion show. Two of the accusers, Sarah Tither-Kaplan and Toni Gaal, decided to take it to the courts in 2019, and after some serious lawyering, they shook hands over a $2,235,000 settlement in 2021.
So, keep your eyes peeled! James Franco is back in the limelight, ready to dodge bullets and possibly more lawsuits, one movie set at a time.
