James Oliver Wheatley

James is a British actor, now soaking up the LA sunshine, who’s been turning heads ever since he swaggered onto Netflix as Blackbeard in The Lost Pirate Kingdom. The guy just owns those big, historical, action-packed roles—seriously, he doesn’t just play characters, he brings them stomping to life. He’s not slowing down, either. Over on FOX Nation, he steps into the sandals of John the Baptist for Jesus: Crown of Thorns. Then he flips the script and goes full villain as Marcus Novak in the Paramount+ thriller High Ground, sharing the screen with heavy hitters like Jon Voight and Henry Thomas. Talk about range. James isn’t afraid to get gritty, either—he led Savage Hunt as Joe Regan, a gnarly survival thriller set in the wilds of Montana. It’s just him versus nature, no backup, directed by action maestro Roel Reiné. After braving the wild, he turned up as Peter in The Last Supper, directed by Mauro Borrelli, trading lines with James Faulkner and Robert Knepper. That one’s set to drop huge during Easter 2025, with a massive release across North America. To wrap up a wild year, James landed a big role as Dismas in Alejandro Monteverde’s sweeping biblical epic Zero AD, alongside a seriously stacked cast—Deva Cassel, Sam Worthington, Ben Mendelsohn, Gael García Bernal, and Jim Caviezel. Zero AD is gearing up for a Christmas 2025 debut, and with James on board, it’s gonna be one to watch.

    • Trivia:

      So, the characters in this flick aren’t just sitting around—they’re into just about every sport you can dream up. We're talking basketball showdowns, golf swings that go wild, ice-skating (sometimes gracefully, sometimes not), late-night jogs, and snowboarding stunts that’ll make your knees ache just watching. They kick up dust on soccer fields, chase waves surfing, and hit the pool for some laps. Not stopping there, you’ve got tennis matches that get weirdly intense, lifting weights like it’s a competition, and biking around town with that wind-in-your-hair vibe. Oh, and motorcycles—you know there’s always at least one motorcycle scene. Skateboards make an appearance too, because why not? And, somewhere in the chaos, someone’s trying to find their zen with a bit of yoga. It’s basically a mash-up of every sporty thing you’ve ever seen, crammed into a story where everyone’s always moving, sweating, and maybe learning a thing or two about themselves along the way.
