James To Go Stateside?

James McAvoyWe caught up with James McAvoy last night at the Empire Film Awards...

And he told us all his thoughts on making a move to Tinseltown.

There's no doubt the star is in hot demand having starred in a string of critically acclaimed films.

But will we lose the sexy Scot to the distant shores of Hollywood?

James, who won the best actor award at the show, told Sky Showbiz: "Moving from Scotland to London was hard enough.

"It did take me a good couple of years getting into London so I couldn't be bothered with the whole getting into another city."

Well hip-hip-hoorah, that sounds like a resounding "no".

James also told us about his recent flick, Wanted, in which he gets to snog the delcetable Angelina Jolie.

But his role wasn't all about smooching. He told us: "She kicked seven colours out of me regularly and it's not fun." Ouch.

The star is rather camera shy, preferring a life away from the lenses, saying: "You're always on the job, and if you do let your hair down and get all steaming there's always someone to take a picture of you and make a fool of you."

His plans for showbiz are distinctively un-rock 'n' roll - they consist of: "Life, love and happiness."

And it seems that happily, it'll all be over here in good old Great Britain. Yay.
