James McAvoy is a Wanted Hobbit

James McAvoy is a Wanted Hobbit

James McAvoy attends the film premiere of Wanted at the Mann Village Westwood Theater on Thursday in Los Angeles, California.

The 29-year-old actor was accompanied by his wife, Anne-Marie Duff, 37. The couple met while filming Shameless and was married in October 2006.

James has recently denied reports he is to take the lead role in the new movie version of Lord of the Rings prequel The Hobbit.

“I’m going to not act for a little while and take some space and take some time — and make some ‘me’ time, you know, all that rubbish,” he explained to Radio 1.

“It’s not true,” he said of the The Hobbit rumors. “It’s come off the internet and turned into a story for some reason. There’s not even been a script yet.”

James was also on The Tonight Show yesterday, check that out here.

Can’t wait to see ‘Wanted”. He was at Jay Leno last night. The red carpet will be more exciting if Brad & Angie were there but as very pregnant Angie can’t make it, I guess JM is fine to promote the movie but still I am definitely be watching “Wanted” to support Angie. The trailers are all very good & the reviews are all great. God bless.

I really like him, but Wanted just looks stupid. But that’s just me.

It seems that he has at least been approached for a role in The Hobbit. Otherwise, how would he know that there wasn’t even a script, yet?
I would like him as Bilbo. He has a good face for the role, and he has the right physical proportions to play the little guy. But he would need to put on a few pounds to appear more ‘hobbity’.

Love him. A bit short for me, but in the horizontal mambo, it don’t make a difference.

Going to see the movie for him, not Angie.

95 degrees yesterday and the guy is wearing all black and a leather jacket. what is up with Hollywood stars bundling up in this heatwave?

James has the lead. Angelina does not need to be at any premiere since she’s not the star. Besides, all over, the posters feature her on them. That’s more than enough.

It’s the freaking meat locker air conditiong that californians love so much. Freaking 32 degrees it feels like. You have to bring your coat.
Euopeans don’t like Air conditioning and neither do I. Put it high enough to cool and circulate the air but not to make ice cubes.

I met him last Nov at a screening for Atonement. He is adorable in person and such a nice man. Apparently he’s taking a couple years off so he can decompress from the attention he’s been getting as of late and spend time on ‘him’.

I wish him much more success!

He’s so hot. Variety said that after watching him in Wanted, he can just about do anything. They are so right.
