Dave Franco's reaction to a surge of texts regarding alleged murderer Luigi Mangione highlights the media's fascination with criminal figures and their likenesses. While attending the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, Franco noted the unprecedented notifications on his phone, as many friends and acquaintances reached out to share the uncanny resemblance. Though Franco was promoting his new film with Alison Brie at Sundance, discussions about a biopic on Mangione are emerging, with several documentaries already in motion yet no official offers for Franco to play the role.
I have never received more texts in my life about anything. Anyone who has my phone number has reached out about it.
Multiple documentaries are already in the works on the alleged United Healthcare CEO assassin, but the scripted field is wide open.
I don't think there have been any official offers.
