James Franco (1978 - )
==Film Deaths==
*Tristan + Isolde (2006) [Tristan]: Stabbed in a swordfight with Mark Strong, whom he stabs to death in return; he dies shortly afterwards while talking to Sophia Myles.
*The Wicker Man (2006) [Bar Guy #1]: Likely killed (off-screen) as part of a sacrifice after the film ends; we only see Franco leaving a bar with Leelee Sobieski, but the ending implies that Franco will be brought to the island and have the same fate as Nicolas Cage. (Note: Franco only appears in the PG-13 theatrical cut)
*Spider-Man 3 (2007) [Harry Osborn/New Goblin]: Impaled through the back with his own Goblin-glider by Topher Grace, when James throws himself in front of Tobey Maguire to save him. He dies shortly afterwards while talking to Tobey and Kirsten Dunst. He was also previously clinically dead earlier in the film after he hit his head and fell in a fight with Tobey, but he was mentioned of being revived by the paramedics.
*Camille (2008) [Silas]: Shot by police at Niagara Falls, yet appears to remain conscious when his wife Sienna Miller rides in a horse to take him away to the next world.
*Milk (2008) [Scott Smith]: Dies (off-screen) of AIDS-related illness; his death is mentioned in the on-screen text at the end of the movie.

*The Iceman (2012) [Marty Freeman]: Shot in the throat and chest by Michael Shannon.
*Spring Breakers (2013) [Alien]: Shot in the head by one of Gucci Mane's men as James, Ashley Benson and Vanessa Hudgens are storming Gucci's mansion. His body is shown again later on as Ashley and Vanessa pay their respects.

*Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014) [Dr. Will Rodman]: Dies (off-screen) from the virus that wipes out most of humanity in the events between Rise of the Planet of the Apes and this film; James is only seen in video footage that Caesar (Andy Serkis) is watching.
*Sausage Party (2016; animated) [Druggie]: Accidentally decapitated after slipping on water while trying to cook Barry the Sausage (voiced by Michael Cera), then causing his broadsword to fall on his neck; his decapitated head shows up later on when Barry shows Frank (voiced by Seth Rogen) the head. (Played for comic effect.)
*Alien: Covenant (2017) [Jacob Branson]: Burnt to death in a malfunctioning cryogenic sleep pod as his wife (Katherine Waterston) and the rest of the crew attempt to save him. His body is later ejected into space as part of a funeral.
*The Disaster Artist (2017) [Tommy Wiseau/Johnny]: In the film-within-the-film scenes recreating The Room, James commits suicide by shooting himself in the mouth in his bedroom as Josh Hutcherson, Dave Franco and Ari Graynor crowd around him. (Played for comic effect.)
*The Institute (2017) [Dr. Cairn]: Throat slit by Tamzin Brown.
