James Franco stars in porn murder drama King Cobra

November 6, 2015 by Gary Collinson

Deadline is reporting that James Franco has just wrapped production on King Cobra, which reunites him with Justin Kelly, director of I Am Michael.

In King Cobra, “Christian Slater plays a porno producer who discovers the next big star Brent Corrigan (Garrett Clayton), then finds himself the target of rival producer and former male escort (Franco) with a bad temper and a burning desire to become a porn kingpin, who’ll stop at nothing to steal his rival’s star. A notorious murder is the result.”

“James, Christian, Garrett, Keegan Allen, Molly Ringwald and Alicia Silverstone have consistently pushed the boundaries of film and culture at large with iconic performances,” states director Kelly. “It’s been amazing watching them transform into these unique, fascinating characters.”
