Sebastian James is known for his work on The Purge T.V Series (2018), Logan (2017) and Battleship (2012). Sebastian was born as James Randel Rawlings in Houma, Louisiana and raised in Bayou Blue, a small cajun community located on the borders of Terrebonne and Lafourche Parishes. This region is known as "The Heart of Acadiana". Sebastian's maternal ancestors, the Acadians, were exiled from Nova Scotia, Canada in the 1700's and found refuge in Southern Louisiana. His paternal ancestors, the MacGregors, belonged to a group of Scottish Celtic warriors known as the Highlanders. They fought alongside William Wallace in the first Scottish war for independence in 1296. Sebastian utilizes the word pursuit, as in the "Pursuit of Happiness", to the fullest extent. As he does not give up easily, it's in his DNA.
