Overview
- In early June James Wilkie Broderick posted a black-and-white carousel of portraits on Instagram photographed by Brad Walsh and thanked the photographer in the caption and Stories.
- Sarah Jessica Parker publicly replied to the post with the comment “Ah handsome. And happy. Xxx, mama,” which several outlets reported as a warm show of parental support.
- The portraits were shot for Walsh’s FELLA project, described by the photographer and reports as an artistic series that will appear in his upcoming book of images of men.
- Broderick, 23, is a Brown University graduate who has small acting credits including a 2025 role in Lady in the Lake, an episode of Elsbeth and short films, with additional projects listed as forthcoming.
- Coverage frames the post as a managed move into the public eye that could boost James’s acting and modeling opportunities while also bringing increased media attention to a family that has historically shielded its children.
