James Franco mini-bio: Although he'd been working steadily, it wasn't until the TNT made-for-television movie, James Dean (2001) (TV) that James rose to fan-magazine fame and got to show off his talent. Since then he has been working non-stop. After losing the lead role to Tobey Maguire, James settled for the part of Harry Osborne, Spider-Man's best friend in the summer 2002 major hit Spider-Man (2002).

Next was Deuces Wild (2002) and City by the Sea (2002), in which Robert De Niro personally had him cast, after viewing his performance in James Dean (2001) (TV). Definitely growing out of his shyness James Franco is turning into a legend of his own.

Ehem...
I could've flooded the whole theater with my tears when I saw him die.
Actually, I cried twice because that part where Peter blows up his Green Goblin lair thing and Harry's face gets burned, yeah, I thought he died there. So, I cried. Then, suddenly, he was there again! And then he died again...and I cried...I could've killed everyone there with my tears! And, it's kind of pathetic, though...Harry dies and we cry like James just died and it's the end of the universe! lol. But hey, that's what you get when you're beautiful and you die! =]
I love you JAMES!
