James is noted for playing Tina Mollett on the television program Casualty.[4]
In 2023 James plays Cleopatra on in Jada Pinkett Smith's Netflix Queen Cleopatra.[5] This has caused a reaction due to the color of James' skin as many say that is wrong because they say Cleopatra's skin was not black.[6][7]
