London: Actor James Franco is set to make his Broadway debut in the John Steinbeck classic ‘Of Mice and Men’.
The 34-year-old Oscar-nominated star of ‘127 Hours’, will play the character of George in the tragic tale of two migrant workers during the Great Depression, BBC reported.
The play was last seen on Broadway in 1974, with James Earl Jones and Kevin Conway playing the two friends.
Franco was expected to make his Broadway debut two years ago, alongside actress Nicole Kidman in Tennessee Williams’-Sweet Bird of Youth- but the production was abandoned.
