Proving once again that there isn’t anything he doesn’t do, James Franco has created marketing material for his upcoming film “This is The End.”
The actor/artist/Ph.D. candidate was spotted in Williamsburg, Brooklyn over the weekend painting a mural of the movie’s cast on the side of a building.
This work of art not only reminded us of Franco’s many talents, but also of the fact that this movie has a very Jewish cast. There’s Franco himself, of course, and also Jonah Hill, Seth Rogen and (not depicted in the mural) Paul Rudd and Jason Segal.
Not sure how we feel about the painting, but we are indeed looking forward to the film, in which the actors, who all play themselves, are at a party when the apocalypse hits.
