We’re fast becoming a James Franco fansite with the amount of his films that we have covered of late. Anyway, what would be wrong with that? The actor/director/writer/model/musician/critic/teacher/older-brother-to-the-equally-amazing-Dave is practically perfect in every way. His latest film, Maladies, a dark period comedy looks at a world where everyone is a little mad.
Franco plays a talented and successful actor (obviously), who retires at a young age due to a perceived mental illness. Now living in a small town with his deranged sister and his best friend, we watch as their Maladies intertwine.
Maladies is directed by someone called Carter and co-stars Catherine Keener, David Strathairn, Alan Cumming, and Fallon Goodson.
There is no set release date, but expect this one to be appearing at Festivals near you.
