In his rise to the Hollywood A-list, James McAvoy has already donned a tuxedo, dabbled in intrigue and played a tortured author. They are all on-screen experiences which will stand him in good stead if his latest rumoured leading role comes to fruition – a biopic of the James Bond creator, Ian Fleming.

James McAvoy, hot property in Hollywood, has signed up to his first movie outing since last summer's 'Wanted'. The Scot is returning to the big screen after a year of theatre, signing on to star in an as yet untitled comedy about cancer that Nicole Holofcener will direct. Formerly titled 'I'm With Cancer', the project is being produced by Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg and Ben Karlin and will begin principal photography next January. McAvoy will star as a 25-year-old who learns that he has cancer. It's a character based on the real experiences of the screenwriter Will Reiser, who was diagnosed with the disease in his mid-twenties and successfully fought it over several years. Rogen also has a role in the film.
