During Tuesday night\u2019s episode<\/a> of Andy Cohen\u2019s \u201cWatch What Happens Live,\u201d the actor and filmmaker seemed flustered when a fan asked if he\u2019d be up for the role. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cOh, how do I answer this?\u201d Franco asked as Alison Brie,<\/a> his wife and co-star in the new horror film \u201cTogether,\u201d tactfully masked her reaction by taking a long<\/em> sip from her drink.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cUm\u2026 no one has approached me about it yet, I\u2019ll say that,\u201d he answered.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Squirming as he continued, Franco said, \u201cThis is something that more people in my life reached out about, this exact thing, than anything else that has ever happened.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cSo, let\u2019s just say I\u2019m open if it\u2019s the right people, and let\u2019s leave it at that.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Back in January, Franco told The Hollywood Reporter<\/a> that he was inundated with messages about his resemblance to Mangione once the alleged murderer was identified and photos of him started circulating.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cI have never received more texts in my life about anything,\u201d the Emmy nominee laughed, adding, \u201cAnyone who has my phone number has reached out about it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
