    All I have to say about this one is that there’s a pornstar who goes by the name James Dean. I just remembered that pornstar was in a normal movie once and the movie got bad reviews siting his acting

    I don’t really know anything about the actor or character called James Dean

      I don’t really know anything about the actor or character called James Dean

      Actor, youth icon of rebellion in the early fifties; he lived, and died, following the motto live fast, die young, and leave a beautiful corpse (well, probably not the last part).

      Most famously starred in East of Eden (for which he received a posthumous academy nomination), Rebel Without a Cause (released posthumously), and Giant (also released posthumously; he was a very posthumous person).

      Died (not posthumously) in 1955 aged 24 in a car accident while racing a Porsche 550 on U.S. Route 466 (currently SR 46) near Cholame, California, after having already been ticketed for going over the speed limit.

      Given his injuries, he probably didn’t leave a particularly beautiful corpse.

      To be fair, I think he goes by James Deen.

      I didn’t know he was in a movie though.
