Maybe things are heating up a little too much for James Franco because he just pulled a no-show.



The 39 year old won Best Actor for his turn in The Disaster Artist at the Critics Choice Awards, but he was not there to accept his trophy.



This comes just days after several women accused him of sexual misconduct after he won at the Golden Globes.



Franco went on a late night talk show and declared that the women are lying, but he’s happy to take the hit if it helps further the movement.



Only problem is, we don’t know if he can’t come out of this unscathed.



Franco is one of the favorites to win Best Actor at the Academy Awards, and if he does, this whole story will take an interesting turn.



Let’s not forget that The New York Times cancelled an event with the star just days after the allegations came out.
