At the time ofTrainwreck’s release in July 2015, James opened up toThe Hollywood Reporterabout making his big-screen debut, admitting he was nervous going into it.
“I was just trying to stay ready. I was very nervous — all the way to the point where they said, ‘Action,’ " he said at the time. “I’m excited to be a part ofTrainwreckbecause it gives me a different format. Some people are used to seeing me on the basketball court, so to see what I’m capable of doing on the big screen and being a part of something with Bill Hader and Amy Schumer and Judd producing the whole thing and directing it all, it’s pretty cool.”
Schumer later praised the athlete’s acting skills, previously tellingEntertainment Weekly: “We didn’t realize till we were on set that he’s this really good actor and really funny. It could have been bad if he wasn’t so good! He was able to improvise — and he was down to joke about everything. It was fun to watch.”
