Seth Rogen and James Franco have worked together on several projects and have been friends for a long time. Rogen recently said in an interview that he wants to distance himself from Franco and does not plan to work with him any time soon, due to sexual misconduct allegations.

Several women have made allegations of Franco being sexually inappropriate, making Rogen question whether he wants to continue having a professional relationship with Franco.

During an interview with The Sunday Times, Rogen claimed he stopped working with Franco after five women accused him of sexual misconduct in 2018.

“It has changed many things in our relationship and our dynamic,” said Rogen.

Charlyne Yi, one of the women who said Franco is a sexual predator and made her feel unsafe, shared a post on her Instagram, revealing her experience with the actor.

The post said that she tried to quit a movie they were working on at the time – Disaster Artist – but directors made an attempt to bribe her with a “bigger acting role.”

She claimed that this was not what she wanted and she felt upset that this was the only solution the directors could come up with. Yi wanted to quit and break her contract for the film because she did not feel comfortable working with Franco.
