James Franco Dishes Dashed Twilight Hopes to Playboy

According to Access Hollywood. James Franco did really want to be in Breaking Dawn:

““I had my agent tell [director] Bill Condon that I’d’ be happy to do anything in ‘Breaking Dawn,’” the actor told Playboy’s August issue.

“But that was because it was supposed to be part of a multimedia project at Yale. I was working with a Yale undergraduate who had written an autobiographical play about putting on a theatrical production of ‘Twilight’ in which I was a character,” he continued. “So I was interested in ‘Twilight’ because I was going to be part of that play. I thought what a great connection it would be if I were also involved with the real ‘Twilight.’”
