The 35-year-old actor is currently teaching graduate filmmaking and screenwriting classes at Ucla in Los Angeles,and now he’s keen to teach budding writers and directors via the Internet,reported Contactmusic.

“I teach at Ucla and Usc and Cal Arts (universities) but I am gonna do an online filmmaking class…

“Ucla and Usc are two of the best film schools in the world and it is hard to get in,it is expensive,so I like the idea of also teaching people that can’t afford that or can’t get in,” Franco said.
