Ladies, I’ll go ahead and address the elephant in the room. I adored Kranz’s character, Topher, but I got really excited when he stepped out of the pool as Claudio in Much Ado. I look forward to watching Cabin in the Woods (and I don’t even like scary movies)!
What a great interview and actually some great advices. Fran will come far as an actor, he’s really talented.
Thank you for it.
What an excellent interview. Fran is such an underrated talent. I’ve only recently discovered him, but he’s already one of my absolute favorite actors. He has the promise of a very successful future! I can’t wait to see him in Much Ado!
LOVE Fran! He’s super sexy 🙂
People tend to mention Eric Stoltz in Back to the Future, but my favourite fired-actor footage is from the Star Trek: Voyager pilot.

TOPHER! Who knew that Franz would have been the hero of The Cabin in the Woods.
Franz frickin Kranz! Franny Crayons! Mr. Crayola himself. Love this guy, he is such a good actor. You should have more Joss Whedon alum on here if possible, no pressure.
omg, saw this man’s picture, had to write something fast.
Goddamit! Cabin in the Woods was AMAZING!!!! too bad I just watched it a month ago in a movie theatre because of how weird Australian release dates are. Anyways, this guy is amazing (Dollhouse and Cabin in the Woods).
Forgot that this guy is an actor… I might need to adjust my expectations from the man before I listen to the podcast.
Man, I LOVE Fran! I just saw him in this series Journey Quest (journey-quest.com) where he plays a bard. He’s really funny! His comic timing is incredible, not to mention the whole “Risky Business”-esque introduction to his character. I can’t wait to see how the rest of the season unfolds!!
Love Fran! Was great to learn more about him and his career. Wonderful episode, Riki!
