Apparently producer Chris Hanley told Variety that him and Spring Breakers: Second Coming sequel director Jonas Akerlund were meeting with Pussy Riot’s Nadya Tolokonnikova and Masha Alyokhina at Cannes shortly to discuss the two activists starring in […]

Paris-based production/sales company Wild Bunch is making “Spring Breakers 2” but don’t get too excited. Harmony Korine is not directing. James Franco is not going to be in it. In fact, “It’s not a direct sequel although there are allusions to some of the characters in the original,” says Wild Bunch chief Vincent Maraval. It doesn’t look like any […]

The saga continues. RiFF RAFF will guest star in an upcoming episode of the soap opera One Life to Live, playing a “shady art dealer” named Jamie Franko. If the bizarre meta-significance of this news isn’t immediately clear to you, allow me to elaborate. In a little film you may have heard of called Spring Breakers, James Franco (Get […]

Since 2011, when we heard about Selena Good-Girl-Tee-Hee-Hee Gomez watching all Harmony Korine’s movies at his house in Nashville and saw James Franco practicing his gangsta cred in some parking lot, we’ve been waiting for this Spring Breakers thing to pop. And it pop pop popped. Yes, of course, I saw the movie last week, and I […]

Here’s a fresh new trailer for Harmony Korine’s mainstream feature effort Spring Breakers. We’ve been on that sweet beat.  It’s like the last trailer, but with more nihilistic, flashy footage and brief flashes of adult content. And more James Franco waving a gun. And a brief shot of Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Benson and Rachel Korine doing […]

Perhaps the strangest thing about Spring Breakers, Harmony Korine’s very strange latest project, is that RiFF RAFF was reportedly asked to play the James Franco role. While the Houston rapper never actually made it into the film, Franco’s character was clearly heavily based on the man and his signature style. After the trailer dropped yesterday, MTV Hive […]

Harmony Korine’s Spring Breakers has a release date — March 22nd, da-da-dum. It also has this neat new poster as seen on the Vulture. Did you forget what it is? Did you forget that a shirtless James Franco will blast “Britney Spears’ ‘Everytime’ on a white piano at the beach as the girls dance around him […]
