Born just one hour apart, James and Santiago have been inseparable since childhood. They grew up together as next-door neighbors before their parents married, making them stepbrothers (or “steptwins” as they like to call themselves).

James is extremely passionate about acting and is currently obsessed with landing the role of Gaston in a local production of Beauty and the Beast. James has a flair for the dramatic (which may explain why he’s constantly breaking into show tunes) and a sharp wit.

When he finds himself unexpectedly caught up in Santiago’s magical world, he quickly proves that his talents extend beyond the stage—especially when it comes to talking his way out of trouble.
