From Stranger Things to Jason Voorhees: James Stokes Gets Real About Life Behind the Mask
In this special episode of Discovering 615, Rob sits down with actor James Stokes, best known for stepping into the mask as Jason Voorhees in Voorhees: Night of the Beast, and for memorable roles in Stranger Things and the upcoming film The Forest Through the Trees.
They dig into the real story behind the scream—what it takes to make it in the film industry, the mental and emotional highs and lows of acting, and how perseverance and community support are the true keys to surviving Hollywood. James opens up about the challenges of typecasting, building a career outside the mainstream, and the surprising generosity of the horror film community.
He also shares his passion for charity work, often appearing at events either in full Jason costume or simply as himself, using his platform to support causes that matter. This conversation is equal parts behind-the-scenes, personal growth, and inspiration.
Whether you're a movie buff, a fan of the horror genre, or someone chasing your own creative path, this episode is packed with stories, insight, and heart.
