Is it a film about slowly deescalating your acting career?!
According to ABC Soaps in Depth, Franco will be working for two months on the show, while filming a week’s worth of shows in one day. It is also rumored that fan favorite Brenda (Vanessa Marcil) may return specifically to work with him.
James’ character is a mystery man visiting the town of Port Charles. The recurring role will air November 23rd.
