He was raised in Tokyo before returning to his birthplace at the age of 16.<\/p>\n<p>Before meeting Jenny at school, he admitted that he &#8220;found it really hard to meet friends.&#8221; Both girls graduated from the school in 1998, while James left the school in 1991 after graduating.<\/p>\n<p>Recalling his first conversation with James <i>X-Men: Apocalypse <\/i>Starr said, &#8220;When I met him, he was very influential on me and my way of thinking.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I thought, &#8216;I&#8217;m going to lock in, and everyone else is telling me it&#8217;s a lofty goal, I&#8217;m not listening. I&#8217;m going to keep going.&#8217; It&#8217;s interesting because we&#8217;ve talked about this a lot, because you never know when you&#8217;re going to impact someone&#8217;s life. It may be a very small moment to you, but it could be a huge memory to someone else,&#8221; she explained.<\/p>\n<p>Munn confessed that she once &#8220;had to apologize so many times&#8221; because she accompanied Jenny to her room several times in James&#8217;s absence while he was in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Oh, this is new information that this was actually a recurring phenomenon,&#8221; the 52-year-old American actor joked.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s worth mentioning that Olivia Munn and James Marsden are playing the roles of Samantha &#8220;Sam&#8221; Levitt and Owen Ashe, respectively.
