Friday, February 06, 2009
James Franco, who won acclaim for playing both a goofy pot dealer and Harvey Milk's lover, has been named Harvard's Hasty Pudding Man of the Year.
Franco will receive the award at a roast February 13 by the Hasty Pudding - the nation's oldest undergraduate drama troupe.
The 31-year-old actor was nominated for a Golden Globe for his supporting role in Pineapple Express and starred opposite Sean Penn in Milk.
He has appeared in TV's Freaks and Geeks and the Spider Man trilogy and portrayed James Dean in the TNT biopic. Renee Zellweger will be honored as the Hasty Pudding Woman of the Year. ASSOCIATED PRESS
