Yes, that's what I think! Let's say he'll keep his hair at least until they make part 2!

Agreed

[Loganbabe]

Nothing new...although these pictures are new to me (outtakes from magazine Details' photoshooting) and I felt like posting them.

(And I love his extraordinary eyebrows! )

[JP]

He's got Xavier's eyes.

[Loganbabe]

Indeed...James has the most intense stare. And let's say I had the privilege of confirming this when I met the man himself!

Was that during your day in court after being handed your restraining order?

[Loganbabe]

Lol!
No, actually I met James when he was doing the play "Three days of Rain" in London.
He was incredibly polite and nice all around, and I behaved accordingly, I swear!

[FaT_tONle]

Yeah I see some Xavier there... but if the Scottish accent pops in it will totally kill any Xavier vibes.

And he's a theater guy too! That immediately makes him even more awesome.

Were you ok when Hugh Jackman slipped in his Australian accent like every 15 minutes?

James' roots as an actor are on the stage...he once said he liked doing theater even more than he liked doing films.

He did a lot of theater in the UK before he starred his first film - even a bit of a musical!



Can you imagine Wolverine and Xavier together in a musical?

[Phoenix_Flare]

one of the things I hope they show if this becomes a trilogy is that they show Xavier fighting for mutant rights like in TAS & the comics...it's pivitol to his character as well as Magneto, since in X3 he said, "Charles Xavier did more for mutant rights than you'll ever know..."(to Pyro),so it'll be nice to see some scenes w/Xavier debating on Capital Hill w/Hank being his protoge' since in X3 he worked for the Government

I would enjoy that.

That was a nice scene in X3 and that would be nice to have some time spent on in this movie.

VIDEO-CLick to Watch!:

[Loganbabe]

One of my favorite videos ever!

[TNC9852002]

That was either really wrong...or really right..

[danoyse]

I saw that show on Broadway 5 times...with the amount of ad-libbing that went on, I would not have put it past him to get James McAvoy on stage during the show and start an X-Men musical if he'd ever found him in the audience.

And that video cracks me up every single time.

Talk about epic, the mere idea of seeing these two together on a stage!

I always feel a bit frustrated that I didn't see Hugh performing in TBfO...this is why I couldn't let the opportunity of seeing James on a stage pass by, and I got to see the play 4 times - naturally I wouldn't fly all the way to London just to see him once!

The day I met James...that's my arm in the background, lol!

[danoyse]

Omg, that picture is amazing!

He just has the most incredible eyes.

You know, when I saw Hugh (twice!) in play last year with Daniel Craig, they were auctioning off their undershirts for charity after the show...if James and Hugh ever do a show together, hopefully it's during BC/EFA time so they can do something similar!

[JP]

Mour pics plz!

[Loganbabe]

I'll post more tomorrow...I need my four-hour beauty sleep now

He does. I was quite lucky that day, because it was a gorgeous day in London, clear and bright, and his eyes were shinning, like neon blue or something. Almost unreal. ---> This is how I was.

I would give an arm to see this happening with James and Hugh!
And it's so great you got to see Hugh performing in NY in two different plays! Did you like "A Steady Rain"?

Okay, pictures!


Lol, my hair!






Dayummmm...


Luckiest day of my life!

Amazing! He's adorable.

(and you so didn't need to censor yourself out of the picture! )

I saw James on The Daily Show when he was promoting Wanted, and he was going on about going to a Yankee game. Loved it.

I loved him in Chronicles of Narnia - that's been one of my favorite books since I was about 8, and he was a perfect Mr. Tumnus.

Loved it. It was really intense. They played Chicago cops recounting a bunch of massive screwups that led to the death of a young boy, among other things.

It was also fun to watch Hugh drop a impressive number of f-bombs in just 90 minutes.
