Bryan Cranston to star in James Franco’s “The Disaster Artist”

Another A-lister is joining the already-stellar cast of "The Disaster Artist", a film by James Franco which tells the story of what's dubbed the best worst movie ever made, 2003's "The Room". It's been revealed that Oscar nominee Bryan Cranston would be among famous faces featured in the upcoming flick, AceShowbiz said.

Greg Sestero, who starred in "The Room" and wrote a book titled "The Disaster Artist: My Life Inside the Room" on which Franco's project is based, announced the casting himself in a Facebook post that has now been removed. However, details about Cranston's character are still unknown.

The 2003 movie was directed by Tommy Wiseau and went on to become a cult classic because of its bizarre storytelling, acting and production values. In his "Disaster Artist", Franco will play the infamous filmmaker alongside his brother Dave Franco as well as Kate Upton, Sharon Stone, Alison Brie, Zac Efron and Josh Hutcherson.

The movie is currently in production and still has no official release date.
