James Preston Rogers was born in Toronto, Ontario Canada to Sandra and Robert Rogers who had no idea that he'd be the larger than life talent that he's become. James was an athlete throughout high school and college, but found his true calling when he went into an audition for a national commercial without a headshot, resume or an agent and booked the role. James realized that he had been looking for an outlet for his creative passions and set upon a career as an actor. James found success in commercials and local stage, and it was then that he was approached by the WWE to be a star wrestler for them. James jumped into the ring with both feet and was soon to be a major star for the WWE, but just after making the move to professional wrestling James auditioned for and got the role of 'Bjorn' in the film Outlander opposite Ron Pearlman and Jim Caviezel, after that a number of starring roles came James' way including Sea of Change opposite Tom Selleck, and the indie film Poker Nights. The WWE saw where James' career was headed and graciously let James out of his contract so that he could dedicate himself entirely to acting. James went on to star in Pixels opposite Adam Sandler and Kevin James, he recurred on the dramatic series Crash & Burn and on the comedy series Walk the Prank, and guest starred on the hit series Reign. Recently James starred in the Netflix critically acclaimed series Frontier starring opposite Jason Momoa and Alun Armstrong. Recently James Preston Rogers has become a regular to viewers recurring on the hit series Mayans MC opposite Robert Patrick, recurring in the HBO series The Righteous Gemstones opposite John Goodman, guesting in Leverage, and lending his talents to Love, Death, & Robots. James stars in the Al Yankovic film Weird: The Al Yankovic Story as Hulk Hogan opposite Daniel Radcliff, and opposite Eddie Murphy in the new Beverly Hills Cop film. At 6'6" and hulking muscle, James stands out in a crowd both literally and figuratively, and his acting talent is even larger. James has formed lasting bonds with Ron Perlman, Donnie Wahlberg, and Aidan Devine. James' performance in Sea of Change left Tom Selleck with such an impression, that Tom selected a scene with James and spoke of him during an interview on 'Live with Regis & Kelly' show. James is grateful and fortunate to have worked with some extremely talented people who have guided him and befriended him along his journey.
