Dude you gotta try to not be so infatuated with this guy. They make up BS headlines like this all the time for hype, remember when lil b was doing an album with Jay Electronica?

Franco says his Spring Breakers character is not based on Riff Raff, and that Harmony Korine never offered Riff Raff a role in the film. He tells GQ:

None of that’s true. I’ll tell you why he could have never been offered the role. Harmony (Korine, the movie’s writer and director) and I were talking about doing a movie together before Spring Breakers was even conceived. I had been a fan of his work and he wanted to do something and I said, “I’ll do anything with you.” We started discussing ideas and one day he sent me a treatment, which he said he’s never done before, just to run it by me…And then he wrote the script. So there’s no chance Riff Raff could have been offered the role.
