However, he also humorously admitted that despite his daughter being an amazing sleeper, he was struggling to balance being a father and working.
James then joked about how some celebrities, like Cate Blanchett, manage to juggle multiple kids and their careers effortlessly.

Later in the show, James shifted the topic to Justin’s past as a soccer player. Justin shared that he was a talented player and was even on track to play at the collegiate level. However, he made the tough decision to quit soccer after landing a role in a production of “The Sound of Music.” He jokingly added that instead of pursuing a soccer scholarship, he bought his dad a house with the money he earned from acting.
The conversation then veered towards Justin’s new movie, “Christmas with the Campbells.” He explained that it is a Hallmark movie, but with Vince Vaughn‘s unique comedic touch. Justin humorously described his role as a cowboy, comparing himself to Kris Kristofferson in “A Star Is Born.” He shared a funny anecdote about working with a dog on set, which turned out to be less cooperative than expected.
