Biography

Describing James Francis Kelly III as simply an exceptional young man falls short. At sixteen, James is poised to become a well-known name in Hollywood. With his role in "Rocky Balboa," the sixth installment of Sylvester Stallone's film series, James is gearing up for the next phase of his career.

Whatever lies ahead, one thing is clear: James Francis Kelly III is prepared. His experience in theatre, sports, and academics has equipped him with a unique combination of skills and knowledge rarely found in someone his age. His mature and confident demeanor made an immediate impression, clearly influencing Stallone’s decision to cast him as Steps, the troubled son of a struggling parent, in the film set for release in December.

While developing his acting talents at the Lee Strasberg Institute, James was chosen at just nine years old to serve as an assistant acting teacher for summer theatre. Having quietly refined his craft since the age of four, he now stands ready to make his mark on Hollywood.

Truly embodying the term "well-rounded," James is a high school junior already being recruited by top football programs nationwide—but his true passion remains acting. Though he serves as captain of his varsity football team, James has also trained extensively in Muay Thai, a traditional Thai martial art, and participates in other sports like soccer and racquetball.

Unlike many young adults, James takes a deep interest in his cultural heritage, which has served as a source of inspiration. Born to an African-American/Native American mother and a father of second-generation Irish descent, James has embraced the richness of these cultures. Last summer, he was formally adopted into the Crow Nation and given the Indian name "Kawaysash," meaning "he who does not give up."

It’s clear that James Francis Kelly III will not give up. He has already demonstrated that he will succeed no matter what the future brings. Renee Missel serves as James’s personal manager, and American Artists Group Management handles his business affairs.
