Displaying astonishing versatility with a wide range of films, JAMES MARSDEN (Richard White) has quickly carved out a distinctive place in Hollywood.
Marsden most recently rocked the silver screen in X-Men: The Last Stand. Directed by Brett Ratner, Marsden reprised his role as 'Scott Summers/Cyclops' in the hugely successful franchise based on the Marvel comic book series.
Marsden is currently in production on Kevin Lima's Enchanted opposite Susan Sarandon, Amy Adams, Idina Menzel and Patrick Dempsey. Enchanted is a romantic fable, mixing live action with CGI animation.
Also due for release are two independent films, 10th and Wolf and The Alibi. 10th and Wolf stars Marsden as a member of the crew who accepts a deal to serve in the military instead of going to jail for his involvement in a mob hit. The Alibi tells the story of Ray Elliott, played by Steve Coogan, who runs a successful business providing alibis for men and women who cheat on their spouses. Marsden plays Wendall Hatch, a man who murders his girlfriend while on a clandestine weekend get-away. Selma Blair, John Leguizamo and Rebecca Romijn also star.
Marsden was also recently seen starring in Merchant Ivory's Heights. Also starring Glenn Close and Elizabeth Banks, the film follows a photojournalist who is forced to come to terms with a complicated relationship in her life. Marsden stars as the woman's fiancé. Recent films also include the Nick Cassavetes romantic drama The Notebook, with Rachel McAdams, James Garner, Gena Rowlands, Joan Allen, and Ryan Gosling; and the blockbusters X-Men and X2 with Patrick Stewart, Rebecca Romijn, Halle Berry, Famke Janssen, Anna Paquin and Ian McKellen.
