James McAvoy has denied rumours that he will play James Bond author Ian Fleming in a movie.
The Scottish star, who is currently filming Gnomeo and Juilet, said that he finds it “weird” that people make up rumours about actors and film roles.
“I’m not attached to any Ian Fleming film. I have no idea how that rumour got started. Somebody put it on the internet or said it to a journalist,” Collider quotes him as saying.
“It’s weird how people will just confirm stuff without actually asking me. It’s not that I think it’s a bad script. I’ve read it and I thought it was a really good script, but I just haven’t spoken to those producers and I haven’t attached myself to it.”
