About James Duval

Born 1972. James Duval is an American actor, musician, film actor and guitarist.

James Edward Duval (born September 10, 1972) and the films of Gregg Araki.

Early life Born in Detroit in 1972 including the 2009 psychological thriller The Black Waters of Echo's Pond and the mystery crime-thriller film Noirland.

Personal life During his early career, while he was acting in Gregg Araki's Teenage Apocalypse films, he identified with their themes of nihilism, social alienation and not fitting in. He said, "I was 18 and living that, searching for myself who I was, where I belonged. I was really confused. Working with Gregg gave me something to move towards. ... there were things I was feeling—that I wasn’t liked, that there were things I couldn’t do to fit in. I was attracted to alternative music and feeling what they were singing about, even though I hadn’t really lived. I was so distraught. I was only 18–19. Everything weighed on that on a daily basis. It was so intense, and almost overwhelming." and his frustration with being asked about his sexuality as a result of playing queer roles. He also mentioned that he was dating his Nowhere co-star Sarah Lassez. The Tag Viggs A Galaxy Far, Far Away Himself
