Season Three Trailer For James Franco’s ‘Making A Scene’ Drops Through Blackpills

An upstart neophyte in the online video industry has shared a look at one of its most notable web series so far. Blackpills, a startup that has caught our attention by picking up a number of head-turning shows, has released a teaser for third season of Making A Scene, the program produced by INE Entertainment and led by actor James Franco.

In each episode of Making A Scene, Franco and a guest collaborator mash up two disparate pieces of pop culture to create a bizarre hybrid. The combination featured heavily in the teaser, for example, is “Anaconda Scissorhands,” a pairing of Nicki Minaj and Tim Burton.

Making A Scene began in 2014 as one of the most notable original series from AOL, and a second season followed a year after that. As AOL’s original programming priorities shifted, Blackpills rushed in to scoop up the third season of Making A Scene in a deal announced this past January.

The Blackpills version of Making A Scene seems similar to its predecessors, though the guest list features more online video standouts and fewer traditional media stars. Creators who will appear alongside Franco in the upcoming season include Liza Koshy, Brandon Rogers, and Kian Lawley.

While Franco is arguably the biggest name attached to Blackpills’ programming push, the Paris-based startup also has a number of other significant shows in the works, including partnerships with Astronauts Wanted, Vice, and producer Bryan Singer. Most recently, it announced the launch of an animation studio headquartered in its native France that will create cartoons for adults.

Season three of Making A Scene will arrive on June 26.
