According to the Associated Press, James Franco will have a two-month gig as a guest star on ABC’s well-established soap opera “General Hospital.” His story-arc is scheduled to begin airing on November 20, 2009.

Franco’s big break came in 1999 when he played opposite Seth Rogen and Jason Segel in Judd Apatow’s television show “Freaks and Geeks.” Since then he has gained fame and accolades in movies such as “Pineapple Express,” “Spider-Man,” and most recently “Milk.”

The Twitterverse is perplexed by Franco’s latest career move:
