Sestero starred with Wiseau in The Room as betraying best friend Mark, who goes after his girlfriend, Lisa, played by Juliette Danielle. Ari Graynor is playing Danielle in The Disaster Artist. “THE DISASTER ARTIST: The making of THE ROOM,” Franco captioned a picture from the set with his brother. “?It has begun!!!!!”

Franco posted another picture from the set of himself wearing a bucket hat, captioning it with a famous quote from the movie: “Oh, hi Denny,”
