Bedlam's Theo James & David Allison On Coming To The U.S., 'Lost'

Originally airing on the UK's Sky TV, Bedlam, a supernatural drama set in a haunted insane asylum-turned apartment building, will make its domestic debut in October as part of BBC America's Supernatural Saturdays. Theo James and one of the series’ creators, David Allison, sat down with Uinterview Founder Erik Meers at ComicCon 2011 to discuss the sexy and scary new show.

Theo James, who was born Oxford, England, completed his acting training at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School. Aside from acting, James also plays the guitar and sings for the British band Shere-Khan. James has made appearances in Downton Abbey and the Woody Allen film, You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger. In Bedlam, James plays Jed Harper, who has the ability to see ghosts and determine how these supernatural creatures will manifest their spirits in living in the natural world.

Bedlam is writer David Allison’s fourth TV series after working on In The City, Boy Meets Girl and The Case. For inspiration, Allison and his co-writers looked to horror films like The Ring.
