James Franco on Oscar Gig: I Did The Best I Could!

James Franco touches down after a flight on Thursday (March 31) to Washington, D.C.

The 32-year-old actor bundled up in a winter hat and several layers of shirts for his flight.

James, who will appear on The Late Show on Friday, chatted about his Oscar hosting experience and even traded stories with host Dave Letterman.

“I never dreamed of being, like, the best Oscar host ever,” James said (via People). “It was never on my list of things to do. It doesn’t mean I didn’t care and it doesn’t mean I didn’t try, right?”

As for allegations that he was under the influence while hosting, James said, “I love her, but … I think the Tasmanian Devil would look stoned standing next to Anne Hathaway. She has a lot of energy!”

“I haven’t watched it back. Maybe I had low energy. I honestly played those lines as well as I could,” James concluded.
