David Dobrik recently shared a chaotic video featuring a surprise guest appearance from actor James Franco.
The vlog captures the moment James Franco entered the bedroom of David Dobrik’s roommate, John, to offer him a high-stakes pop quiz.
James Franco promised to give John $1,000 if he could simply name five of the actor's movies.
The challenge quickly turned into a comedic struggle as the roommate tried to process the situation while waking up from a deep sleep.
Initially, James Franco expressed concern that the task might be too easy, fearing John would simply list the three Spider-Man films.
To make things more interesting, he increased the requirement from three movies to five.
However, the plan backfired when John struggled to recall even the most famous titles in the actor’s filmography.
Despite James Franco sitting right on the edge of his bed, the roommate found himself stumped after only identifying the first two films.
The interaction highlight’s David Dobrik’s signature style of blending celebrity cameos with everyday pranks.
As John failed to reach the five-movie mark, James Franco eventually lowered the bar back down to three titles to give him a fighting chance.
Both David Dobrik and James Franco began dropping obvious hints to guide John toward the Spider-Man franchise, but the roommate still failed to connect the dots.
The awkward silence and confused guesses created a hilarious scene for David Dobrik’s millions of subscribers.
The video serves as a reminder of James Franco’s extensive career, even if his titles did not immediately come to mind for the groggy roommate.
From Pineapple Express to his dramatic roles, the actor appeared to have a good sense of humor about the lack of recognition in that specific moment.
While John might have missed out on an easy $1,000, the collaboration between David Dobrik and James Franco provided a memorable moment for the channel.
Fans continue to enjoy David Dobrik's ability to bring major Hollywood stars into his lighthearted world.
