James Franco is blaming the extreme lengths he goes to to tackle a role on the bust-up that cost him his friendship with Annapolis co-star Tyrese Gibson. The star blasted Franco in a Playboy interview in February, insisting he'd never work the super-serious actor again after falling out with him on the set of Annapolis.

And Franco accepts the fall out might have been his fault, and admits he has approached Gibson to apologize. He tells Complex magazine, "We've made up, or I tried to make up with him. Maybe I was too into that role. I don't try to be mean to anybody on a movie. In the past I've tended to isolate (myself), and maybe people take that as me being rude or me not liking them, but it's really a way for me to stay in my character. I really had nothing personal against Tyrese, but I guess there were a lot of misunderstandings."

In his Playboy interview, Gibson growled, "I never want to work with him again, and I'm sure he feels the same way. It felt very personal. It was f**ked-up."
