James McAvoy gives Glasgow school-girl royal treatment
Posted by Jasmine with No Comments
LITTLE Corra Jones was treated like royalty when she wandered on to the set of James McAvoy’s latest movie.
The Last King of Scotland actor was every inch the obliging star when the six year-old asked him to meet her after she spotted him filming near her home in Cardonald, Glasgow.
McAvoy – filming scenes for the big screen version of Irvine Welsh’s book Filth – dropped what he was doing and posed for photographs with her.
Corra’s dad James, who was with her when she met the star on Monday, revealed that the 33-year-old Scots actor enjoyed a “right good blether” with his daughter.
Earlier, McAvoy, who was raised in Glasgow’s Drumchapel, revealed that he loves filming in Scotland so much that he plans to bring his family to the set.
McAvoy, who is married to actress Anne-Marie Duff, said: “It’s been really enjoyable filming here so far and it’s nice to be back in Scotland.
“I’m thinking about bringing the family to visit. We’ll have to wait and see.”
McAvoy, 33, whose sister Joy has a role in the film, also gave an autograph to fan Rosemary Fraser, who got a quick cuddle too.

Collider: Latest Update on X Men First Class Sequel from Michael Fassbender
Posted by Jasmine with No Comments
Here’s a latest update on X Men First Class Sequel from Michael when he was promoting his latest film, Haywire:
I’m going to be the generic online reporter and ask if there are any updates on the X-Men sequel and did you happen to see any of the Prometheus footage that premiered on Apple?
Fassbender: I don’t know about X-Men, but I am hoping so. I know they have been sort of talking. I’m trying to get together with James [McAvoy], the writer, [Producer] Simon [Kinberg], and hopefully Matthew [Vaughn]. I hope that Matthew is going to be down. I hope we are going again, but we just to have to wait and see. I don’t know but I know that if it’s happening I want to sit down at the grass roots and with James as well. We have some good ideas I think. I haven’t seen the trailer. I didn’t even know.

X-Men First Class Sequel Has So Many Interesting Places To Go
Posted by Jasmine with No Comments
It’s hard to deny just how successful “X-Men: First Class” was. Not only did it gross nearly $150 million domestically, the film gave the series a well-deserved face lift and rewarded fans with a story and characters true to what they love. It’s only natural that fans are begging for more.
But what’s unique about “X-Men: First Class” is that it’s not just the fans who are desperately asking for a sequel. Both of the movie’s leads, Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy, have spoken openly about wanting to find out where Magneto and Professor X go and having their own ideas for a sequel. Enthusiasm abounds with the team behind the first film, and a second seems likely at this point. But one big question remains. Will Matthew Vaughn return to direct?
Many people, Fassbender and McAvoy included, give a lot of the credit for the first film’s success to Vaughn and his frequent collaborator, screenwriter Jane Goldman. Vaughn’s involvement most likely won’t be decided until Simon Kinberg, the man Fox hired to write the sequel, delivers a script, and Goldman’s almost entirely depends on Vaughn, according to the screenwriter herself.
Goldman spoke with MTV News while promoting “The Woman in Black,” and she said she understands the strong push for a sequel.
“James and Michael brought so much to them that I think it’s entirely natural to be talking about where those characters would go next,” she said. “It was inherent in their stories and their arcs. There are so many interesting places to go.”
If Goldman does eventually work on the picture, it will most likely be a rewrite of Kinberg’s script, but that all depends on what Vaughn decides to do. “In terms of what’s going on with that, again from my point of view, it’s down to what Matthew [Vaughn] decides to do,” she said. “If he decides he wants to direct the next one and if he wants me on board, I’m 100 percent there.”
