Since James Franco, 40, was accused of sexual misconduct by five women earlier this year, he’s laid low as much as possible. That changed on Monday, July 23, when the actor made a rare appearance with his girlfriend, 25-year-old graduate student Isabel Pakzad, in New York City. The couple stepped out together to see the opening night performance of “Straight White Men” at the Hayes Theater, stopping to pose for photos on their way into the show. The event marked the pair’s red carpet debut. James, who has said the misconduct allegations he “heard on Twitter are not accurate,” brought Isabel to the 2018 SAG Awards. They have been dating since early November, according to InStyle.
