James Franco likes variety in roles

LONDON - Hollywood actor James Franco says he likes to try out all genres of movies.
He feels he shouldn’t miss out on any “experience”, reports contactmusic.com.
Franco said: “It seems like of course you should work this way, but I didn’t understand this: don’t act in any movie you wouldn’t ordinarily go to see on your own if you weren’t in it. Now I don’t necessarily always follow that advice. Sometimes there’s an actor I want to work with, or a director I want to work with. On ‘Eat Pray Love’ I got to work with Julia Roberts for a week. Why not have that experience?”
“The press are going to come up with an image of you no matter what, so if projects like ‘General Hospital’ are a way to go out there and shake that up a little bit I don’t see the harm.”
