James McAvoy Runs with the Olympic Torch!

James McAvoy runs down Buchanan Street carrying the Olympic Torch during the leg between Stranrear and Glasgow early last month in Glasgow, Scotland.

The 33-year-old actor is one of thousands of people who received the chance to carry the Olympic Flame during a 70-day relay covering 8,000 miles.

Director Timur Bekmambetov recently told Indie Wire that he and his team made a major breakthrough in the scriptwriting process for Wanted 2!

While most of the major cast died in the first film, James‘ character is set to return for the action packed sequel. We can’t wait!
