Unlike Shawn Spencer, James Roday is not an excellent sense of observation. That does not stop to take on USA Network for the first part of Psych. A role for which he almost did not apply.
James Roday Rodriguez was born in San Antonio, Texas, April 4, 1976. He began his career studying theater at the New Yorker University Experimental Theater Wing, where he earned a degree in fine arts.
It will quickly get roles in theater in New York in the classic The Three Sisters, Twelfth Night, A Respectable Wedding, but also more contemporary pieces (Severity’s Mistress, Sexual Perversity In Chicago)
Then, the actor eventually move to television and film, with little success. There he played mostly in Do not Come Knocking by Wim Wenders and Rolling Kansas by Thomas Haden Church.
On television, we note the short-lived series Miss Match. In 2005, unblock the situation with a role in the movie Dukes of Hazard (The Dukes of Hazard) in the skin of Billy Prickett. He will find also the director Jay Chandrasekhar for a small appearance in the independent film Beerfest.
However, at this point in his career, James Roday intended to stop the television. He chained roles without success and the more he sank, he became more ill. He would then return to the theater in New York when the script arrived Psych.
These are agents who then drove him to read. It was the first actor hired on the series and was then involved in the hearings for the other characters in the series. He also met the media to see how this happened when he had visions.
In addition to playing, James Roday regularly tries to write with his partner Todd Haathan and James DeMonaco. He then participated in the scenario of the movie Skinwalkers, and always with Haathan (The Kill Point), they wrote the screenplay for Gravy, a film that should Roday himself achieve, currently in preproduction.
