Franco To Play Porn Moguls
Of course he is. James Franco is adding another entry to his already-crammed IMDB page by signing up to play not one but two parts in “The Wire” creator David Simon’s new HBO project, a drama about the rise of the New York sex industry in the 1970s and 80s. “The Deuce” will see Franco play two twin porn moguls embroiled in the city’s illicit pornography scene, and the dubious elements that went with it, including mob activity and the drugs trade. HBO has ordered a pilot to be written by Simon and George Pelecanos.
