The Little Prince actor also received a career homage on Monday as well as his very own private beach cabin at Deauville's Promenade des Planches.
'I'm not running for president and I don't know how to fix it but certainly there is a working class and middle class in America that's left behind and it's not a good thing. Hopefully this film can shine a light on this issue,' Franco said at Monday's press conference - according to Variety.
'I've not been politically active in my life but as a public figure there are certain things that I can raise awareness on and send a message to younger people - raise attention on voting for instance.'
