Looks like James McAvoy REALLY wants to keep his son out of the limelight.
Here's what the Gnomeo & Juliet star had to say when asked about his son, while at a press junket for the family film:
"The hardest thing about being a dad in this business — the best way for me to be a good dad is not to talk about him. I'm so sorry. I realize that you guys are the people to talk to about babies, but if I want to get him papp'd and all that kind of stuff then I can start talking about him. And, if I don't want to get him papp'd then I can't talk about him. I'm so sorry. Thanks for understanding."
We suppose we can appreciate where you're coming from, James, however we'd absolutely love to get a glimpse of the little guy!
If he looks anything like the mother and father, we're sure he's adorable!
Do U think it's okay that James McAvoy doesn't want to talk about his son? Or is it laaammmeee???

Well, at least you might not have so much trouble dragging your girlfriends to the movie, fellas!
X-Men: First Class director Matthew Vaughn has revealed that there is going to be a lot of "teen angst" in the latest installment of the X-Men franchise - just the sort of thing that gets Twi-Hards all weak in the knees.
Matthew went into some detail about how the relationship between Magneto and Charles Xavier would play out, before ending with:
"It’s got a lot of teenage angst. The Twilight girls will like it."
Oh, we have no doubt that they will!
James McAvoy: get to work on your smolder!
All right! This didn't take long at all!
After the first image of the cast of X-Men: First Class appeared on-line earlier this week, director Matthew Vaughn revealed that it was an unintentional leak, and he was not pleased with the impression that it gives of his flick!
He explains:
"I don't know where the hell that came from. I don't think it's a Fox image. It’s not a pre-approved image. When I found out, I said, 'What the fuck is this shit?' and Fox is running around trying to figure out what happened as well. It's like a bad Photoshop…it didn't reflect the movie. I was shocked when I saw it. I was like 'Jesus Christ…'"
We didn't think that it was THAT bad, but regardless, it worked out in the end, because it's given him incentive to release more OFFICIAL stills from the flick (below) and even the first teaser poster (above)!
Ch-ch-check it out!
Personally, the more that we see, the more we like!
ESPECIALLY James McAvoy as Professor X! Damn, boy - you FINE!
And we cannot get over January Jones with her ho level turned up full-force as Emma Frost! LOVE it!
LOLz!
What do U think?? Are U excited for X-Men: First Class??
Check out the photos (above) of Michael Fassbender as Magneto and James McAvoy as Professor X in Kick-Ass director Matthew Vaughn's X-Men: First Class!
We had gotten a glimpse of the full cast earlier this week, but we're pumped to get a more substantial look at these two key characters!
We'll miss Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart, but hey! They've gone on to bigger and better things, like The Hobbit and…doing voices on Family Guy (sorry Patrick!)
We like what we're seeing A LOT! Next, we'll look forward to some images of January Jones as a totally true-to-her-comic-book-character, sluttastic Emma Frost!
HAWT!
Wow! This already looks effing RAD!
Check out the first official photo from the upcoming X-Men: First Class, directed by Matthew Vaughn, which features the entire group of characters decked out in costume (above)!
From left to right: Michael Fassbender as Magneto, Rose Byrne as Moira MacTaggert, January Jones as Emma Frost, Jason Flemyng as Azazel, Nicholas Hoult as Beast, Lucas Till as Havok, Zoe Kravitz as Angel, Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique and James McAvoy as Professor Charles Xavier.
We gotta say, we're liking the way everyone looks so far!
Especially Miz Emma Frost, who clearly has her slut game going on in a big way! Glad to know that they stuck to her character in the comics! LOLz!
What do U think?? Are U excited for X-Men: First Class??
Words like "epic" may not be strong enough for this one.
Matrix directors The Wachowskis must be on cloud 9 after putting together such a wonderful team for their upcoming film, Cloud Atlas.
The film is based on David Mitchell's novel about a series of characters that find their destinies intertwined over thousands of years. So intense!
Here's what previous Wachowski collaborator Natalie Portman had to say about the project:
“I don’t know what’s going on with financing. I read it while doing V for Vendetta and I gave it to the Wachowskis and to Tom Tykwer. Now they’re directing it together, the three of them. I will have some acting role in it if it happens, but probably nothing major.”
Other than Natalie Portman, Halle Berry has also confirmed her involvement with the film. Other actors who have been rumored to be attached to Cloud Atlas include Tom Hanks, Ian McKellen, and James McAvoy.
We're pumped to hear about Tom Tykwer's involvement too! Run Lola Run was pretty damn awesome.
Thoughts???
We think he'd have a lot of fun with this!
Sources are reporting that James McAvoy is being considered for the lead role in Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.
If cast, James would take the role or Mr. Darcy in the reinvented world where zombies factor into the Jane Austen epic.
As for his leading lady, sources are pegging Anne Hathaway for the role of Elizabeth Bennett.
What - no Keira Knightly? Or are zombies to low brow for her?
Whatever. We would love to see Anne & James team up again in another take on Jane Austen lure.
Wouldn't U?
