A little something from Fran about Much Ado About Nothing, which is something I think we’ve all been waiting for!
“[Whedon] shot that while he was on vacation,” says Kranz. “I remember he said he was going to go to Italy with his wife and kids, then all of a sudden he started to shoot a movie, which is crazy… He does a lot of readings at his house, he’s a great host. He always has people over, but he likes to have something to do, something specific. Sometimes he’ll read plays. One night we all read ‘A Mid-Summer Night’s Dream’. He called me one day and said he was thinking about doing ‘Much Ado About Nothing’, but filming it this time. That struck me as doing something handheld, with a Flipcam or something. Not something big with grip trucks, all of this equipment and stuff. But that’s what it turned into.”

Another neat project update, this time for Joss Whedon’s modern adaption of Shakespeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing” in which Fran will be joined by Nathan Fillion, Tom Lenk, Amy Acker and more! Check it out!
Make sure to read read up on the project at Entertainment Weekly!
Note: Congrats to everyone involved (both those who contributed, and the cast/writers/producers/directors/crew) for making the 102% mark on the kickstarter campaign for Lust for Love!
I’ve added 80 good quality screencaptures from the video below announcing Fran‘s latest project, an upcoming crowd funded film called Lust for Love. Crowd funded means that YOU can help Fran‘s film go to production, and there are a lot of neat things you can get by pledging – DVDs, TShirts, exclusive access to media and more! Make sure to check out their Kickstarter page for more info, or use the widget on our sidebar to pledge!
The film also stars some Dollhouse favorites such as the lovely and talented Dichen Lachman, handsome and multi-talented Enver Gjokaj, gorgeous and lively Maurissa Tancharoen and Buffy/Dr. Horrible alumni Felicia Day!
Thanks to Melanie for sending this in, a great interview with Fran from just before the filming of Orange County (which was the role that made me a fan):
Kranz prefers theater to film. He said, “While working on Donnie Darko, I felt like all the actors were little prostitutes and the director dictated our every move. I haven’t done that much film work, but it seems to me that a film isn’t the actor’s work. In a play, you control the character—it’s really your role. Theater is much more of an art.”
A quickie post to let everyone know that Fran‘s new film Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules premieres tomorrow according to Internet Movie Database.
Unfortunately, thanks to the fact that there’s only one theater in this small town and it only plays one film a week, I won’t be able to see it opening weekend but if anyone else gets to check it out and would like to let FKF know how it was, please tweet @FranKranzFan or check us out on Facebook!
Best of luck to DoaWK 2, here’s hoping it’s #1 this weekend!
Just added 89 screencaptures of Fran as Noah in 2008′s short film Last Meal, pardon the quality, the videos on fearnet tend to be HD in name alone but if you’d like to watch the short it’s also below. Happy new year!
I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to finish this update (I uploaded the trailer over 2 months ago!), but I’ve added screencaptures of Fran from the Friends With Benefits trailer + several MQ stills and a promo:
Sorry, I suck, I’ve been gone forever but I’ve been involved in politics and campaigns, plus two moves in 8 months (one of them major) and a career change so I’m crazy insane and busy, busy, busy.
An update: Friends with Benefits was, indeed, picked up but Fran won’t be in it. Instead he’s been off Broadway in The Bachelorette, here’s a little theater review of his performance:
And Fran Kranz makes an impressive Off Broadway debut as the eternal wingman Joe, whose softheartedness is revealed in a moving monologue about his history of drug taking. Joe, too, does not perceive how his casual dedication to getting high is a symptom of a more profound alienation.
According to Zap2it.com (take this lightly, may or may not be true) Fran has landed a role in the Friends with Benefits series pilot. Here’s what they had to day:
Kranz (“Dollhouse”) will play one of a group of people looking for love in “Friends with Benefits,” the HR says. The show comes from “(500) Days of Summer” writers Scott Neustadter and Michael Weber and “Wedding Crashers” director David Dobkin.
