James Franco Co-Wrote A Book About Lana Del Rey [PHOTOS]

"The Interview" actor James Franco is writing a book about Lana Del Rey. The book is intended to conclude his tribute to the "Summertime Sadness" singer. The piece coined "Shades of Cool" was for V Magazine back in January.

The book called "Flip-Side: Real And Imaginary Conversations With Lana Del Rey" reportedly spans 100 pages.

"I wanted to interview Lana for a book and she said, 'Just write around me, it's almost better if you don't get me exactly, but try,'" James Franco explains.

This then prompted Franco to actually write the book, co-authored by New York Times bestselling author David Shields as well. The two have previously worked on the film, "I Think You're Totally Wrong: A Quarrel."

James Franco praised with Lana Del Rey saying, "She is a musician who is a poet and a video artist." The "Pineapple Express" actor adds, "When I watch her stuff, when I listen to her stuff, I am reminded of everything I love about Los Angeles.

"I am sucked into a long gallery of Los Angeles cult figurine, and cult people, up all night like vampires and bikers. The only difference between Lana and me is her haunting voice. That carries everything," Franco said.

James elegantly explains, "The voice is the central axle around which the spokes of everything else extend." Not to worry, listen to Lana Del Rey's new single, "Honeymoon."

The cover features of a collage of photos consisting of James Franco, Lana Del Rey, and the singer's sister Chuck Grant. Not to mention MoMA directior Klaus Biesenbach on Fort Tilden beach in New York dating July 2014.

Fans will have to wait until "Flip-Side: Real And Imaginary Conversations With Lana Del Rey" hits the shelves on March 15, 2016. But preorders are available at the Penguin Random House website.

Meanwhile, James Franco interviewed Lana Del Rey just this month. It is another piece for V Magazine out on September. It seems as though James Franco has a lot to say about the "Once Upon a Dream" singer.
