I considered becoming a priest very seriously. I wanted to travel the world. By the time I turned 16, I realized I was only in it for selfish reasons. And, more importantly, I didn't want to sacrifice the ladies! James McAvoy considerimportantlylady share on social
I don't think I'm ever going to get to the point where people run across a freeway to take a picture of me. I really don't see it getting to that level of hysteria unless I have an affair with the Queen of Sweden or something like that. James McAvoy affairfreewayhysteria share on social

I also really liked playing Mr. Tumnus in 'Narnia'. I got to play my favorite character in children's literature, which I loved. You don't get the chance to do that in other jobs. James McAvoy chancecharacterchild Change image and share on social
I've done enough for a while and people get fed up of seeing you, but apart from that, although I'm young, I need a bit of rest. You could say I have become a house husband. It's not a new man thing, it's just largely a boring man who doesn't mind staying in the house thing. James McAvoy biteborefeed share on social

When I was 15 or 16 - I slept really well then. Now I sleep on a bed of anxiety-tipped nails. James McAvoy anxietybednail Change image and share on social
I don't want to be all worthy about it, but I don't do red carpets, I don't do events and I don't accept freebies that much. James McAvoy acceptcarpetevent Change image and share on social
