WATCH – BEING FRANCO –
Dec. 22, 2021 – Among those he hurt was his longtime friend and collaborator Seth Rogen, who declared in an interview back in May that he has no plans to work with Franco again. “I just want to say, I absolutely love Seth Rogen … He was my absolute closest work friend, collaborator, and we just gelled, and what he said is true,” said Franco. “We aren’t working together right now, and we don’t have any plans to work together.”
Of course, Franco continued, Rogen’s comments were “hurtful”—but he said he understands them. “Because I was silent, he had to answer for me, and I don’t want that,” he told Cagle. “That’s one of the main reasons I wanted to talk to you today, is I just don’t want Seth or my brother or anyone to have to answer for me anymore.”
While Franco’s career as an actor and filmmaker has for the most part stalled in the years since his sexual misconduct scandal unfolded, he told Cagle that in the end, he’s glad he went through what did. “If anything positive has come out of this, it’s like, I’ve changed. It’s given me the incentive to do the work to change,” he said. “I’ll keep working at it for the rest of my life, but at least it got me off that path that was never going to end and would probably kill me.”
