10 Actors Who Made An Insane Amount Of Movies In One Year
3. James Franco Featured In 9 Movies In 2013
The Movies: Interior. Leather Bar., This Is The End, Lovelace, Oz The Great And Powerful, Child Of God, Homefront, As I Lay Dying, Palo Alto, Third Person There was that time when it seemed like James Franco was everywhere, remember? And that time was 2013, certified "Year of the Franco" - a notion made evident by the sheer number of motion pictures that this guy starred in across the span of that particular year. Whilst a few of these flicks are destined for obscurity - Child of God, As I Lay Dying - on account of their, you know, suckiness, Franco had an incredibly varied 2013 all in all. The best movie of this period in Franco-terms, of course, was the brilliantly funny This is the End, a comedy apocalypse flick in which he played himself. He was also the highlight of that movie, relentlessly mocking his alleged persona as a pretentious dork. The other notable turn that year came in the form of Oz the Great and Power, a half-good prequel to The Wizard of Oz with Franco poised as the Wizard. This guy is seriously productive, ya'll.
