Footage surfaces of Dave Franco, Alison Brie's ‘nasty' public act
Alison Brie and Dave Franco might be taking togetherness a step too far. Footage of Brie cutting Franco's toenails while sitting on a picnic blanket in Griffith Park in Los Angeles surfaced on social media on Tuesday — and fans had plenty of thoughts. The Community actress was seen discarding her husband's toenails in the grass, as he scrolled through his phone looking completely unbothered, per Page Six. While some were grossed out, others speculated it might just be promotion for their new horror flick, Together, in which they play a co-dependent couple. 'They're both comedians. They tend to do stuff like this, the cameraman is probably even with them,' one Reddit commenter wrote. 'This is probably staged, and if it's not, the person filming is a lot weirder than they are,' another chimed in. 'This got to be for the new movie cuz why else would they be doing this in public?' a third speculated. Meanwhile, others couldn't contain their disgust. 'Yeah that's nasty Alison,' one user reacted via X, while another commented, 'Doing this for a man in private is also wild …' Another user chimed in, 'TMI. Some things don't need to be shared on here man.' Brie, 42, and Franco, 40, have already made waves with the promo for Together, a supernatural horror film they starred in and produced. On Monday, Neon Films posted a picture on Instagram of the two intimately kissing in front of a billboard of their characters kissing in the film, encouraging people to take similar photos. 'The perfect couple in 'the perfect date night horror movie,'' the caption reads in part. Brie and Franco have been married since March 2017 and have worked together multiple times. She previously talked about what it was like having her husband direct her sex scenes with Jay Ellis in the movie Somebody I Used to Know. 'I realise that it sounds wild, but we are actors, this is our job,' she told Jezebel. 'It's actually not that weird. And with something like this, because it's our baby that we made together, I think our first priority is always just the movie.'

Dave Franco fans left disturbed after spotting 'wild' public act with wife Alison Brie: 'I'm gonna throw up'
Everyone shows love in different ways - but Alison Brie and Dave Franco 's bizarre display of affection should probably have been kept inside the house. The Hollywood couple were spotted cozying up together on a picnic blanket in Griffith Park in Los Angeles - but it is what they were doing that had people talking. In a clip shared by Pop Crave to social media, Franco, 40, was seen sitting down on the blanket scrolling on his phone while his wife of eight years, 42, clipped his toenails. The pair looked relaxed, both wearing blue denim jeans and white shirts, with Franco donning a short-sleeved floral button up over the top. 'Doing this for a man in public is wild,' text on the video read. While the couple looked perfectly content with their setup, not all users agreed, taking to social media to share their own thoughts. 'I'm gonna throw up,' declared someone. 'Doing this for a man in private is also wild…' joked one user. In a clip shared by Pop Crave, Dave Franco, 40, was seen sitting down on the blanket scrolling on his phone while his wife of eight years Alison Brie, 42, was clipping his toenails Another remarked: 'Peak love or peak madness. Either way, that's Hollywood intimacy.' Meanwhile, others speculated it could be clever promotion for their new film, in which they play a dysfunctional couple. 'This is just publicity for their new movie about codependency,' a fan wrote. 'One of my favorite stunts for a movie yet,' gushed another. The intimate act comes after the couple - who tied the knot in 2017 - shared a steamy kiss to promote their upcoming horror film, Together. The duo posed underneath a billboard for the movie which shows them breaking away from a kiss but seemingly having interlocking lips. Brie and Franco play a codependent couple in the horror film who move to the countryside where they encounter a supernatural force that causes their bodies to undergo mysterious and startling changes. Brie spoke to the Hollywood Reporter about their latest project, explaining: 'Both of us have done intimate scenes with other actors, of course, but without giving too much away, a lot of this film requires close proximity from its two leads to a greater extent than anything I've done before.' She continued: 'I think we pretty much finished every day of shooting and said to one another, "I don't know how you could make this movie without a real-life couple because of some of the situations we found ourselves in."' 'The movie explores codependency and it's something that we don't necessarily think is a good or bad thing. There are levels to it,' Franco explained. 'Because we are married, and we work together constantly, I think we definitely could be defined as codependent. But we try to maintain a healthy relationship.' 'Also, because of the fact that certain jobs take us away from each other for long periods of time, we are forced to also be more independent.' The couple were introduced by mutual friends at Mardi Gras in 2011 and they married in 2017.

'Just nasty.' While some found it disgusting, others speculated it was merely promotion for the couple's new horror flick, Together, where they portray a codependent couple.
