Grimes played James for six episodes in True Blood’s sixth season before quitting the cast.

Grimes’ spokesperson claimed that he left to pursue other possibilities.
Grimes played United States Navy SEAL Marc Lee, who was killed in action in 2006, in the 2014 movie American Sniper. He played Christian Grey’s brother, Elliot, in the 2015 movie Fifty Shades of Grey and its sequels, Fifty Shades Darker (2017) and Fifty Shades Freed (2018).
