Lennie James Landed His Jericho Role After Only One Audition

In looking for his first acting gig in America, British actor Lennie James, who portrays Robert Hawkins in the television series, Jericho, gave himself a three-month deadline. After only three weeks, he had not one, but two job offers.

In an interview with the Associated Press, James recounted his relatively easy audition process. “I didn't test for the network. I didn't actually go back and do another meeting. It was all on that first meeting, and I was done and signed up.”

The 40 year-old actor from Nottingham England arrived in Los Angeles early last year, and his performance on the show has captured the attention of many American viewers. Jericho’s executive producer, Carol Barbee, praised James’ acting prowess, saying “Lennie is a great dramatic actor…But he's also very funny and very friendly, and he has all of those facets to him that make him a great con man and we needed a great con man.”

When British actor Lennie James arrived in Los Angeles early last year, he gave himself three months to get a gig. After three weeks, he’d been offered two.

“I promised my mates I wouldn’t tell the story again,” jokes James, who landed his role on “Jericho” after his first audition — almost unheard of in Hollywood.

Audiences are loving James as Robert Hawkins, one of the mystery men in the CBS drama about a Kansas town trying to cope in the aftermath of a nuclear attack on the U.S.

Wednesday’s Jericho was one of those rare hours of television these days, it seems. So very many questions were answered and pretty much no new ones raised.

Dramas Tap Menaces to Drive Stories

Article by A. J. Frutkin.

A good conspiracy may not guarantee success for serialized dramas, but it certainly doesn’t hurt, either. In fact, the format almost demands it. Lost has the Others. Prison Break has the Company. Heroes boasts a shadowy figure called Linderman. And viewers of Jericho still don’t know who nuked America.
