However, due to the sexual misconduct claims that have been made against Franco recently, Vanity Fair decided to remove him from the issue.

Oprah Winfrey, Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Tom Hanks, Michael B. Jordan, Zendaya, Jessica Chastain, Claire Foy, Michael Shannon, Harrison Ford, Gal Gadot and Robert De Niro all still appear on the Vanity Fair Cover, alongside the publication's editor-in-chief Graydon Carter.

Ever since the sexual misconduct allegations have been made against James Franco, he's been keeping a lower profile, having skipped the Critics' Choice Awards.

Following his win at the Golden Globes, The Los Angeles Times ran a piece, in which, five different women accused James Franco of harassment.

On a lighter note, Vanity Fair also received quite a bit of attention for what looked to be a Photoshop fail, giving Reese Witherspoon a third leg on the upcoming cover, and Oprah Winfrey a third hand.
