Actor Dave Franco discusses the making of his directorial debut, "The Rental," which he co-wrote with Joe Swanberg and stars Dan Stevens, Alison Brie, Sheila Vand and Jeremy Allen White. The film, available July 24 from IFC, centers around four friends who rent a vacation home. Franco tells Salon it was inspired by his own paranoia about home sharing. "We're all aware of the risks of staying in a stranger's home, but we never actually think anything bad will happen to us," he said.
Watch the episode to hear more about why Franco decided to direct, his take on horror and why his favorite collaborator is his wife, Alison Brie.
