Who played james west in the wild wild west?
Robert Conrad starred as James West. Before "The Wild Wild West", Conrad played private eye Tom Lopaka in ABC's "Hawaiian Eye" for four seasons, 1959-63. Conrad claimed to be the 17th actor to test for the role of James West. (Rory Calhoun was initially announced for the part. Others tested included Robert Horton, Ray Danton and James "Skip" Ward.) Conrad performed nearly all of his own stunts in the series. "For the first few episodes we tried stuntmen," Conrad explained, "but the setup time slowed production down, so I volunteered. Things started moving quicker when I took the jumps and the spills. We started meeting the budget." Early on he was doubled by Louie Elias or Chuck O'Brien.

Warner Bros. optioned the film rights to "The Wild Wild West" in 1992, and hired Richard Donner to direct from a screenplay by Shane Black that would have starred Mel Gibson as James West (Donner coincidentally directed three episodes of the original series). Finally in 1999, a theatrical feature-length film loosely based on the series was released as "Wild Wild West" (without the definite article used in the series title). Co-produced and directed by Barry Sonnenfeld, the film made substantial changes to the characters of the series, such as re-imagining James West as a black man (played by Will Smith) and Artemus Gordon (played by Kevin Kline) as egotistical and bitterly competitive with West. Additionally, significant changes were made to Dr. Loveless (played by Kenneth Branagh). No longer a dwarf, he was portrayed as a double amputee with no legs and confined in a steam-powered wheelchair (similar to that employed by the villain in the episode "The Night of the Brain"). Loveless' first name was changed from Miguelito to Arliss and was given the motive of a bitter Southerner who sought revenge on the North after the American Civil War.
