James McAvoy Reacts To His Most Iconic Roles

[@adaenechi6723]

I still stand by my logic that bending a bullet is like kicking a free kick, I’m not a scientist but it makes sense right????

[@ruialmeida818]

actually, it doesn't make sense. In order to bend something, that something should be spherical, and you had to apply spin on it. A bullet is the wrong shape, and it is propelled through a controlled explosion in the chamber, thus not gaining any spin, thus, it is not possible to bend a bullet.

Hi girl I’m still learning English at this point and can you please tell me what do you mean by saying “play in the bill” (or is it “put it in the bill”), it’s been bothering me for an hour after watching this interview. Thank so much if you could respond to this ❤

[@bloom6568]

I’m so glad he loved his role in atonement, he is completely right that it also felt like real people rather than characters and especially with the story it’s so emotional, a beautiful but tragic story. Him and Keira acted really well together and had a lot of on screen chemistry. That movie still resonates with me, and every time I watch it, or even clips, I cry

Being Scottish myself and absolutely mesmerised as a child with rhe chronicles of Narnia, James no matter what role he plays he is absolutely unbelievable and as a person makes me feel proud to be Scottish as he is an absolute inspiration and a huge role model that any generation should inspire to be, plus having met him in Edinburgh he's a genuine approachable lovely guy.
