You know James from one of his most iconic roles - Frank, from Donnie Darko. I had the pleasure of working with him for a bit on a film called Beast Mode.
James is very chill and down-to-earth and he took a moment between projects to sit down with us and talk about his career - and his new film Beast Mode.
