Paul Christopher James Terry (born 7 November 1985) is an English former child actor.
James is best known for his role in Roald Dahl's James and the Giant Peach's 1996 film version.
He appeared in four seasons of the children's sitcom Microsoap (1998–2000).
Early life
Terry was born in and grew up in Watford, Hertfordshire, north of London, and his parents refused to allow him to attend acting lessons until he was five years old. He made his stage debut the following year in a national production of Turgenev's A Month in the Country. His father heard of the auditions for a screen version of Roald Dahl's popular children's book James and the Giant Peach in 1994 and hoped his son would be "like James": "Like James," he said.
Performing career
Director Henry Selick (The Nightmare Before Christmas) chose Terry out of hundreds of child actors to play the part of James in James and the Giant Peach. The role required live acting as well as animation voice-work and singing. The live-action sequences were filmed in San Francisco, and the shoot took six weeks. For his role in the film, which included singing one solo song and two ensembles on the soundtrack, Terry was nominated for a Young Artist Award for Best Performance in a Voiceover.
Terry later starred in the 26 episodes of the children's sitcom Microsoap, co-produced by the BBC and the Disney Channel, from September 1998 through February 2000. The program aired in the UK, the U.S., and other countries. Terry gave up acting after the series ended.
In the 2000s he was the bass guitar player for the indie band Glassapple. The group gigged in the London area, toured in the U.S., and in 2005 released a 3-track EP.
Later career
Terry received a master's degree in civil engineering from Cardiff University, and his employment has included BAE Systems. As of 2017 he is a mathematics teacher and aspiring novelist, and lives in County Durham in northeast England.
