James Franco might just have an obsession with "Harry Potter" star Emma Watson.
The 37-year-old "The Interview" star recently shared a snap on Instagram - his new tattoo, which is a portrait of Emma Watson right on his neck. Not only that, but the tattoo also features a cursive lettering of his "This Is The End" co-star's name, right underneath the artistic portrait.
Captioned, "I <3 Hermoine. Ink by @indiangiver," James Franco was definitely eager to show off his new ink in a black and white shirtless photo, even though he spelled Hermione's name wrong. It also boasted another tattoo: an American eagle on his chest.
Thankfully, however, the tattoos aren't permanent. E! News reports:
"But, before Watson runs for a restraining order (kidding!), everyone can remain calm because all of the tattoos are just temporary. The artist he credited with crafting the neck art, Cheyenne Randall, reposted the photo on her own account with the caption, "#shoppedtattoos," a nod to her flair for faux artistry.
"At a cursory glance, Randall's entire Instagram account is filled with iconic stars, like Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe, covered with body art thanks to one modern marvel, Photoshop. We can confirm wholeheartedly that the 1950s blond bombshell did not rock a tattoo sleeve on her days off."
Emma Watson has yet to issue a comment on James Franco's new tattoo. Unfortunately for her former co-star, James might just have some serious competition for winning Emma Watson's heart.
The "Beauty and the Beast" actress has been recently linked to dating Roberto Aguire, a 27-year-old actor and producer. Emma Watson first met Aguire on the set of "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire," when the hunk was still an intern.
Although sources say that the romantic rumor isn't true, people are still betting on the fact that they're really dating - maybe just keeping things mum at the moment.
James Franco net worth is $20 million.
