The Scots actor played the title role in the first part of the film as Wallace's backstory was revealed.
And James, who was just 12 at the time, has been busy ever since, forging a career that's seen him star in some of the biggest shows in the UK and the US.
The role of the Scottish hero was James' first credit back in 1995.
And he wouldn't appear on screen again until 2007's Saxon where he played a fishmonger.
However, James also auditioned for the part of Anakin Skywalker in the first Star Wars prequel in 1999.
James regularly updates fans on instagram and shared pictures of concept art as him playing a junior Darth Vader
