Donnie Darko
A cult sci-fi thriller about a troubled teenager haunted by a mysterious rabbit who warns of the world's end. Formally inventive and steeped in eighties nostalgia, this debut by Richard Kelly became a defining film of its generation.
James "Jimmy" Edward Duval (born September 10, 1972, in Detroit) is an American actor who first gained attention through Gregg Araki's so-called Teenage Apocalypse trilogy (Totally F***ed Up, The Doom Generation, Nowhere). He later became widely recognized for playing Miguel in Independence Day, Frank in the cult favorite Donnie Darko, and Singh in Go, and has since built a long career in independent and genre film alongside regular appearances at U.S. fan conventions.
Duval will appear in a new role as a court clerk in the film I Want Your Sex.
The actor is announced as a guest at the Roboto Toy Fest fan event, where he will perform on September 13.
Duval is listed among the guests of St. Louis Horror Con in 2026.
His upcoming events include participation in Columbus Horror Con and Louisville Horror Con.
In an interview for Dread Central, Duval looked back and evaluated his collaboration with Gregg Araki on the Teen Apocalypse trilogy.
