Theo James has come back to the screen with “The Gentlemen,” the action comedy series that has taken over Netflix, becoming one of the most popular titles of the platform. The English actor received praise for his performance as Eddie Horniman.
While James is mostly known for his portrayal of Tobias Eaton in The Divergent film series, he has become a TV regular with stints on series such as the drama Golden Boy, the romantic drama The Time Traveler’s Wife and the dramedy The White Lotus.
For the latter, he was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award as Best Supporting Actor. However, he is set to star in another project soon, a supernatural horror film titled “The Monkey.” Here’s what we know about the project, and his other potential roles.
