Even Hollywood stars are guilty of a bit of re-gifting!

James and Dave Franco sat down with our Entertainment Hub to talk about their new movie, The Disaster Artist, and they got a bit of an insight into just what Christmas is like at the Franco's.

The Disaster Artist is already getting a lot of awards buzz thanks to James' incredible transformation into the enigmatic Tommy Wiseau. The film tells the story of the making of what is considered 'the best worst movie' in the world, The Room. Since it's release in 2001, Wiseau's film has gained cult status.

Despite Dave being married to fellow actress Alison Brie, the pair still spend every Christmas together with their mum, Betsy.

When it comes to Christmas presents though, Dave revealed that James is known to re-gift some of his Hollywood freebies.

'[James] usually has some sort of clothing campaign with a certain company, so he gives us clothes from that company'.

'There were seven good year of Gucci!', James admitted

The Disaster Artist marks the first time that Dave and James have worked together (Dave plays the best friend of James' character Tommy).

Despite it taking them so long to work together, the pair are incredibly close - even having lived together when they first moved to Hollywood.

Although James revealed that when Dave moved out, he ended up taking something extra from the house - his cats!

'I had these two cats, Harry and Arturo...and Davey, like, seduced them', James Revealed, adding 'when we moved out, I gave them to him'.

'I stole his cats', Dave revealed.
