The filmmaker's inner circle of comic actors, from 'Freaks and Geeks' to 'This Is 40'
James Franco
After starring in Freaks and Geeks as the ultimate bad boy, Daniel Desario, James Franco has linked up with Apatow twice more: he made a cameo as himself in Knocked Up and starred alongside Rogen as a pot dealer in Pineapple Express. Since getting his big break, he has starred as Harry Osborn in the original Spider-Man trilogy, delivered a noteworthy performance in Milk and was nominated for numerous awards – including a Golden Globe and an Oscar – for his starring role in 127 Hours. He also made an uncredited cameo in Rogen’s 2011 reboot of The Green Hornet.
