Does James Franco have a man crush on Robert Pattinson? Discussion Of James Franco’s sexuality has ranged from gay to straight and everything in between but there is some evidence that James wants Robert Pattinson, so Kristen Stewart beware.
At a minimum it is clear that James is desperate to work with Robert as he recently gushed in a interview with Playboy about his attempts to work with Rob on several occasions.
Franco told Playboy that he created a submission for the Venice Biennale, an invitation-only art festival. His submission, Rebel, was intended to be a tribute to the film Rebel Without a Cause. Mind you, this is the same event for which Franco filmed a fight surrounded by naked women wielding knives and that he carved his late costar Brad Renfro’s name into his right arm using a switchblade. And for some unknown reason, he just knew the project wouldn’t be perfect without Robert Pattinson. Maybe it was the blood. But when Rob was contacted about participating, he replied back simply, “I don’t get the point.” Ouch.
James also told the mag that he had wanted to be in Breaking Dawn. According to Franco, he was working with a Yale classmate who had written a play where its characters were putting on a production of Twilight and he was a part of the cast. He had his agent approach Breaking Dawn director Bill Condon because he wanted to make the play a reality.
That James Franco has his sights set on Robert Pattinson seems little in doubt.
