I’ve worked with James three times in the past 10 years or so…most recently Philanthropist and Solomon Kane…He is a consummate pro, dedicated, engaging and friendly. James treats the crews that work around him with the utmost respect and courtesy. Success couldn’t come to a more deserving guy in this industry.

He certainly does. I’m not sure just any actor could work as Teddy. The way James is… his very unique way, is just ideal for a character like that. If done differently, without that particular charm James exudes, Teddy would come over as a real cad and not be as likable despite his naughtiness. And, I think the show is only going to get better and better as it goes along. That certain something James has is another reason I’m so very excited to see his portrayal of Kane. He is so good at transforming to various characters that he’ll approach Kane from a very different angle from Teddy, of course, but I’m just dying to see that performance!

About the Philantropist, i watched the first two episodes, and i am mightily impressed by his acting skills an charisma! The series has a promising concept, but he really sells the character!

This is just exactly what I was worried about. Makes me feel so darn helpless. We can hope that The Philanthropist does really well, as it should, and that the interest in Mr. Purefoy is such that a big screen film looks mighty tasty to the studios reps. It’s a genre of film that’s been more popular over the past few years than ever before, so I’d think they’d look at it as a good choice, but who knows. My fingers and toes are crossed that soon we’ll hear very good news on this!
