Basically, every character I've ever played, I've based entirely on internal conflict. And I love doing that, because I think it's very human.
James McAvoy[Macbeth] is historically set in a place depicted by Shakespeare as brutal and violent, incredibly superstitious, and that's something that I do believe is Scottish.
James McAvoyI learned something from a string of failed relationships. You don't see a pattern quickly. You see it over time. I learned to stop jumping in at the first sign of attraction. As soon as you're attracted to someone, you go for it - whether or not it's a good idea. Basically, just going out and getting laid.
James McAvoyI don't know if anybody's ever ready for another award season. It's kind of like Christmas.
