James acting??

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3l3IMMX5hM

about 6 minutes into this interview James says that he's been 'offered' acting roles but has no passion for it. Firstly I could have sworn that he said when he was younger that he wanted to be an actor and secondly, does anyone know anything about these film roles?? Ta x

he'll make a decent gangster judging by his acting skills in the Thats no way to tell a lie video The story goes he saw some film or other in the cinema and was so impressed he signed up for A level drama. As for specific roles he might've been offered i haven't a clue.

Didn't know he had been offered actual acting roles! Very interesting! He should be the next James Bond as far as I'm concerned!

Lol imagine the flack he would get for that. Daniel Craig gets loads for 'only' being about 5ft 10

I reckon he'd have been good in Twin Town. May have saved it, could've been a good film but had nowhere near enough Welsh dialect in it.

You can see him has some sort of Welsh Arthur Daley/DelBoy character. He would be ideal cast as a 'fence'
