7FAMxFranco episode 2: Cody Horn

It’s time to reveal the second episode of our gorgeous Fall Winter campaign imagined and created by James Franco. This week, the spotlight shines on hot young thing Cody Horn, one of a new breed of American cool stars. Check out the video below…

Actress and model Cody was born and raised in LA, embodying the youthful glamour and easygoing nature of the California coast. Not just a pretty face, she studied Philosophy at college New York University and channels what she learnt into her acting. You might recognise her from her role in Magic Mike earlier this year, where the lucky lady got to cosy up with Channing Tatum, and you can look out for her alongside Jake Gyllenhaal in upcoming cop movie End of Watch (we’re not jealous at all, honest…). We’re huge fans of Cody’s laidback style – a girl after our own heart, she’s most comfortable in a simple tee and a pair of jeans.

Five Things You Might Not Know About Hollywood

With the unveiling of our new Fall Winter campaign Hollywood Ressurection shot by James Franco just around the corner, we’ve been inspired by tales of tinseltown! How much do you know about America’s most glamorous city? Read on for our favourite Hollywood facts…

7 For All Mankind | Hollywood Trivia

The iconic Hollywood sign was built by investor and estate agent Harry Chandler for $21,000 in 1923. It originally read Hollywoodland and was intended to advertise the area for 18 months. Ninety years and four thousand twenty-watt light bulbs later, it’s still standing.

7 For All Mankind | Hollywood Trivia

The very first film to be made in Hollywood was In Old California by D.W. Griffiths. It was filmed in 1910 and took two days to shoot. Griffiths was a cinematic pioneer, with the first close-up, long-shot and fade-out attributed to his films.

The first ever screen kiss was between May Irwin and John Rice in the 1896 film The Widow Jones. The movie with the highest kiss count is John Barrymore’s 1926 film Don Juan, racking up a total of 126!

 7 For All Mankind | Hollywood Trivia

The actor with the greatest number of leading roles in Hollywood movies is western star John Wayne, appearing in 153 films, but John Carradine holds the title for the most screen credits at over 230.

7 For All Mankind | Hollywood Trivia

The final line of Gone with the Wind is one of the most famous in film history – ‘Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn’ – but director David O’Selznick was fined $5,000 for using bad language.
