So can you imagine how it feels when one day you wake up popular? That what has happened to James Franco. He has been acting in different movies
since 1998. You can`t say that the movies of that period were bad... But the were not enough to make James famous. And one day everything changes.
It all started in 2002. You know, I`m talking about the first Spider-Man where Franco played Harry Osborn, the son of the villainous Green Goblin (Willem Dafoe)
and best friend of the main character (Tobey Maguire).
Originally, Franco was considered for the lead role of Spider-Man/Peter Parker in the film, but, as you know, Tobey Maguire got it. Spider-Man was a commercial
and critical success. The movie earned $822 million worldwide. So the very morning after the premiere James got up and understood
that James Franco photos are in every magazine.
This young handsome guy became world famous in one evening.
In this same year, Franco was cast in the drama City by the Sea. The following year he co-starred alongside Neve Campbell in Robert Altman's The Company.
The success of the first Spider-Man film led Franco to repeat the role in the 2004 sequel, Spider-Man 2. The movie was well received by critics,
and it proved to be a big financial success. Spider Man 2 became the second highest grossing film in 2004.
We had to wait for four years to see him in Spider-Man again. Comparing to the previous two films' positive reviews,
Spider-Man 3 was met with a mixed reception by critics. Nonetheless, it stands as the most successful film in the series.
Now Franco is a well-known actor and a film director. And more then that, he is a very handsome man. Just show me a woman who can look at
James Franco pictures and say he isn`t hot?
