James Franco probably realized that it's high time that he stopped pursuing Lana Del Rey via Instagram and other social media channels. The fact that she is going steady with her Italian boyfriend means that it's much better that James Franco spends his time developing his new show and poems.
According to USA Today, James Franco will star in a new show on Hulu. "The show is an adaptation of the Stephen King novel of the same name where a man travels back in time to try to prevent Kennedy's assassination. It's being produced by J.J. Abrams, so the trailer isn't showing us much, but we do get a lot of very concerned looks from Franco and some sweet 60s fashion."
He also has been getting more and more literary. His latest poem about global warming on Instagram is his latest endeavor in the world of wordsmiths. Before releasing his new creation, he also participated at a literature awards ceremony. According to the Hollywood Reporter, "The 25th Annual Literary Awards festival put on by PEN Center USA will take place on Nov. 16 at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, with a slew of talent slated to present and attend... James Franco will deliver remarks on PEN Center's free expression advocacy work."
With college experience under his wings, James Franco probably feels qualified to give this speech at the literary event.
He has been doing things like this to attract Lana Del Rey's attention, but he hasn't been successful so far.
But not if he continues to flirt liberally with other beautiful women of Hollywood. James Franco recently shook the world of Instagram when he debuted a selfie with the face of Emma Watson tattooed on his neck. Of course, this was a big hoax, per James Franco tradition on Instagram, but this may start a flirting trend with Emma Watson, recently single.
According to Time, "the portrait of the Harry Potter star wasn't really inked on Franco's neck. It's an image from artist Cheyenne Randall, who uses photoshop to add tattoos to photos of celebrities."
The article also reported that "Watson and Franco are friends, though she's yet to comment on social media about the image. The two starred in the black comedy This is the End, where Watson played herself."
Maybe he should focus on his poems and new show.
