David John Franco was born in Palo Alto, California, to Betsy Franco, an author, and Douglas Eugene "Doug" Franco, who ran a Silicon Valley business. He has two older brothers, actors James Franco and Tom Franco. His father was of Portuguese and Swedish descent, and his mother is Jewish. Dave made his first television appearance at age 21, in 2006, in an episode of 7 à la maison (1996). A string of high-profile TV work followed, interspersed with roles in some moderately successful movies, including Le secret de Charlie (2010) and Fright Night (2011), and he came to bigger prominence when he played Eric Molson in the hit movie version of the cult TV series 21 Jump Street (2012). He subsequently co-starred in the zombie romance Warm Bodies : Renaissance (2013) and the thriller Insaisissables (2013), and provided a voice role for La Grande Aventure Lego (2014). Some of his other films include Nos pires voisins (2014), 22 Jump Street (2014), and Jet Lag (2015).

    • Quotes
      [observation, age 27, on playing teenage roles] Everyone always says, especially in the business, it's great to look a lot younger than you are for longevity's sake. But sometimes I just want to look my damn age and play a character my age. I don't want to play high school again.
