James Franco drops out of his own movie
Quote:
The Garden Of Last Days appears to have collapsed after its star and director James Franco reportedly pulled out just weeks before filming.
Franco fell out with financier Millenium over the production crew he wanted to hire, according to Deadline, who were not deemed experienced enough by the company.
Some $500,000 (£327,000) had already been plunged into the $3 million project, which was set to commence filming on July 10.
The Garden of Last Days was to be the latest adaptation of an Andre Dubus III novel (following Jennifer Connelly-starrer House of Sand and Fog) that would explore values of family and sex over a single night at a Florida strip club.
Game of Thrones actress Emilia Clarke had already been lined up to play a stripper and young mum in the film.
