James McAvoy’s Clerical Confession
He broke hearts of women everywhere in the Oscar-nominated drama "Atonement" -- and skyrocketed to fame, but James McAvoy says he's still not used to the limelight. "Part of you gets used to it and part of you remains totally freaked out," he told "Extra."
James once considered a profession far from the limelight – the seminary! "For about five minutes," the "Penelope" star confessed. "Then I quickly realized in order to become a Catholic priest, one would have to give up conjugal rights." Good news for his wife!
As for his other leading lady in the upcoming "Wanted," Angelina Jolie, James says their love scenes aren't all they're cracked up to be. Of performing a love scene with one of the most beautiful women in the world, he says, "Those things are always embarrassing."
