James Nelson-Joyce: “I want Wayne in This City Is Ours!"
About this episode
James Nelson-Joyce joins Wayne Rooney in Liverpool and it doesn’t take long before talk turns to a potential role in This City Is Ours. But can he actually act? Wayne fancies his chances as an actor.
There's a deep dive into football on Merseyside. Would Wayne have loved to play for Klopp? Who really runs the city - Liverpool or Everton? Expect strong opinions, Scouse humour, and a few digs along the way.
James also opens up on the success of This City Is Ours, his journey to a BAFTA nomination, and the reality behind the scenes. How do you deal with rejection? What does it mean to represent Liverpool on screen? And why do Scousers always stick together?
