It's a boy for James McAvoy and his wife Anne-Marie Duff!

James looks as if he's found the perfect role - fatherhood."

Anne-Marie Duff & James McAvoy: Premiere Pose
| Feb 9, 2010 by CAROLYN ROBERTSON |
Expectant mom Anne-Marie Duff was looking lovely as she posed for pics at the premiere of her husband James McAvoy's new film, The Last Station in Berlin, Germany (January 27).
Back on the red carpet at last night's London Evening Standard British Film Awards, the actress took a spill as she excitedly headed up on stage to collect her Best Actress statue. Fortunately no harm was done as she was soon back up and laughing about her little tumble.
In a recent interview her talented hubby admitted that he's relieved not to have to face the industry pressure that Anne-Marie and other actresses are under, telling Britain's Elle magazine, “I’d hate to be a woman in this business. They’re not allowed to be imperfect. If you see an actress weighing over 90lbs being cast for anything, it’s considered totally edgy and ‘out there’ experimental cinema, which is ridiculous.”
James and Anne-Marie recently confirmed the happy news that they are expecting their first child.
