James Franco Reacts to Seth Rogen's Comments About Him & Their Future as Longtime Collaborators

James Franco is addressing Seth Rogen‘s comments about how the pair have no plans to work together going forward.

In 2018, Seth was asked if he would work with James again amid all the allegations against him and, at the time, he said yes. However, in 2021, Seth changed his answer.

“I also look back to that interview in 2018 where I comment that I would keep working with James, and the truth is that I have not and I do not plan to right now,” Seth said. “I don’t know if I can define that [our friendship] right now during this interview. I can say it, um, you know, it has changed many things in our relationship and our dynamic.”

James is now reacting to Seth‘s comment.

James told SiriusXM’s The Jess Cagle Podcast , “He was asked about me. And, I just wanna say, I absolutely love Seth Rogen… Cause a lot of people come up to me like… I love Seth Rogen. I worked with him for 20 years. We didn’t have one fight for 20 years. Not one fight. He was my absolute closest work friend, collaborator. And, we just gelled and what he said is true, you know, we aren’t working together right now and we don’t have any plans to work together. Of course it was hurtful, in context, but I get it, you know, he had to answer for me cause I was silent. He had to answer for me and I don’t want that. And so that’s why, you know, it’s one of the main reasons I wanted to talk to you today is I just, I don’t want Seth or my brother [Dave Franco] or anyone to have to answer for me anymore.”

James finally broke his silence after years out of the spotlight.
