In an interview with Broadway TV, when asked what made him take up the role in the movie, Jim stated that the movie itself was what compelled him back to the industry.
He said: “Creativity, uniqueness and a lot more. I just couldn’t afford not to be part of this movie. The cast members are incredibly talented. I always choose my scripts very carefully and when I got the script for Seven and a Half Dates, I just couldn’t turn my back on it.
“I must say, the script compelled me back into acting. This movie is a must watch and Seven and a Half Dates is the most important movie date you have this year.”
