Franco's Pre-Oscar Jitters

18 Feb – James Franco admits that he is nervous about hosting the upcoming 83rd Academy Awards on Sunday, 27 February 2011 in an interview with Showbizspy.

"I'm the most nervous I have ever been," said Franco, 32. "I think it's actually worse than when I had to give a presentation in my class at Yale."

"The 127 Hours" hunk is not only co-hosting the Oscars with "Love And Other Drugs" star Anne Hathaway, he is also in the running for the Best Actor award at the most prestigious movie event of the year.

Franco jokingly added that he even thinks an Oscar statuette would make the perfect murder weapon and that he is shocked at just how lethally heavy one of those famous awards can be.

"It's really heavy. I don't know if it has happened in any movie but you could do a great murder scene with one of those things!"

"127 Hours" will be showing at cinemas in Singapore on 17 February 2011!
