Dave Franco Rejects Success Due to Brother James Franco's Fame

Dave Franco acknowledges that his older brother James Franco helped him get an agent and his foot in the door early in his career, but stresses that his success is due to his own talent and hard work. He stated, "No one was going to hire me just because I was James Franco's little brother," emphasizing that if he lacked ability, he would have quickly disappeared from the industry. Dave has built a strong career with notable roles in films like "21 Jump Street," "Now You See Me," and the recent "Regretting You," and has also earned Emmy nominations for his work as an executive producer and actor. Despite James Franco's career being affected by lawsuits alleging sexual misconduct, Dave says his brother remains supportive and is excited to see him grow and try new things. Dave also frequently collaborates with his wife, Alison Brie, and is unbothered by potential labels from those joint projects. He is set to star in the upcoming third installment of the "Now You See Me" series, continuing to establish his own path in Hollywood.
