Who is James Hampton?

8/3/2020

0 Comments

 
How many times in your life have you talked about, "that guy/woman who played that character," but you couldn't remember their name?  Well, James Hampton appeared in several movies and TV shows for over three decades, but people didn't always remember his name.

This was so common, Johnny Carson made his audience raise their right hand and pledge to remember the name - James Hampton.  However, that funny story is just one of many interspersed in a Hollywood life that seems too good to be true. 

If you're someone who knows his name from movies like Teen Wolf, Slingblade, The Longest Yard, and Condorman, or TV shows like F-Troop, Full House, Punky Brewster, The Rockford Files or others, you don't know the whole story. Mary Deese Hampton joins the show to discuss the entertaining and entertainment life of her husband James Hampton. 

You'll hear some of the fun stories from his upcoming autobiography, What? And Give Up Show Business?, including:
Picture
  • How James was mistaken for a ghost
  • How he was mistaken about "fans" in the grocery store
  • Why he turned down three roles (and what they were)
  • Why a certain Condorman scene became a REAL rescue.

​Also today, Matt Moore is here to talk about the Condorman comics and whether or not the 1980s character could have a place in the Marvel Universe.
