Seth Rogen Just Slammed the Door on James Franco

Seth Rogen is done. Like, completely done. When asked point-blank if he still talks to James Franco, his response was ice cold: \”I haven’t talked to him in a long time, no.\” That’s it. That’s the friendship.
For those who need a refresher, Franco faced multiple sexual misconduct allegations in 2018 that basically nuked his career. The actor eventually settled a lawsuit for $2.2 million, but the damage was already done. And apparently, so was his friendship with Rogen.
The two used to be Hollywood besties. They made movies together, hung out, the whole thing. But once those allegations came out, Rogen clearly decided Franco wasn’t worth keeping around. No apology tour, no redemption arc, no second chances. Just radio silence.
Rogen’s blunt \”no\” says everything. He’s not interested in reconnecting, catching up, or giving Franco a platform to rehabilitate his image. Some bridges, once burned, stay burned.
