JAMES FRANCO
James Franco will be in a mutli-episode arc on Nick at Nite’s upcoming primetime soap Hollywood Heights, the network announced today. What magic is this! The show, formerly known as Reach for the Stars, is based on a Mexican series about a shy girl who becomes a pop star after winning a songwriting competition. Along the way, she befriends a mega-rock-star — who is of course her celebrity crush. Heights premieres in June and will air five nights a week, telenovela style, but it’s not clear yet when Franco’s arc starts or what his role entails. If there’s a God in TV heaven, though, it’s someone incredibly sage and hilarious.
