Welcome from AC News,
let's see today's trailer
and cinema news is coming up!
James Franco has evidently a talent for playing cultural gay icons.
Like Allen Ginsberg in Howl back in 2010 or Hart Crane in The Broken Tower,
now he will interpret Robert Mapplethorpe in the biopic of the photographer.
Mapplethorpe died of AIDS in 1989 at 42 years old and
during his time was extremely controversial with his work,
but he's also known for realizing photos with celebrities,
from Andy Warhol to Patti Smith.
The director of Mapplethorpe is going to be Ondi Timoner.
That's all for today,
see you soon from AC News!
