This month, we’re loving...Dave Franco

James might be the Franco brother hogging the spotlight, but Dave’s the one we’ve got our eyes on as Now You See Me 2 hits the theaters this month.

1 He’s older than he looks

Over the last four years, he’s played a highschooler in 21 Jump Street, a frat boy in Bad Neighbours, and a young street magician in Now You See Me, so you’re forgiven if you mistook this babyfaced actor for a 20-something-year-old. In actual fact, Dave turns 30 this month.

2 He’s a cat guy

He has two cats, Harry and Arturo. He described himself as a “weird cat guy”, and when his friends meet him, they’d ask how he’s been, followed by how his cats are doing. And it’s not just him, the whole Franco family loves cats – his mum and older brother James both own two cats each.

3 He broke Zac Efron’s hand... with his crotch

Yup, you read that right. While filming a fight scene on the set of Bad Neighbours, the script called for Zac to swing his hand at Dave’s unmentionables. He supposedly swung too hard and broke his hand. Whew.

LOL DAVE

Soon to be 30, Dave is hilarious, both on-screen and off. Here’s proof.
