James Franco is currently working on The Masterpiece, a movie about the making of Wiseau’s “worst film ever made” The Room, and Cranston is going to be playing a small role in it.

The Masterpiece is based on the book The Disaster Artist actor Greg Sestero wrote about being in The Room, he’ll be played in Franco’s film by his brother Dave.
