Steve James

Steve James was often cast in action movies as the hero’s sidekick, despite usually being a better actor and fighter than the star. His first major film role was as Robert Ginty’s sidekick in The Exterminator; he later played sidekick to such stars as Michael Dudikoff (3 times), David Carradine, and Chuck Norris.

His last 2 films were the pilot for the TV series “M.A.N.T.I.S.” which aired on the Fox network just a few weeks after his death at age 41 of cancer (of unknown origin) and “Bloodfist V: Human Target” with Don “The Dragon” Wilson which premiered after Steve’s death.
