About James Eddy

James Eddy is a freelance writer for Screen Rant, focusing on Movie and TV Features since early 2022. Based in the center of the known universe, otherwise known as South Norfolk in England, James works on writing fiction, mainly in the sci-fi and fantasy genres, and on a website that he designed to aid better mental health through reading books, listening to music, watching movies, and encouraging creativity. He has been known to dabble in local politics and has occasionally done some writing about his local soccer team. Even so, the chance to research obscure details and come up with strange theories about Star Wars, the MCU, Disney, and a bunch of other well-known franchises has been a real joy. Having spent most of his life looking for any kind of excuse to watch more films and TV shows, working for Screen Rant has given him the ideal justification for his vaguely antisocial tendencies.
