Summary

emocleW, emocleW, emocleW to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!

This is your bonus FRIDAY REWIND episode! Today, we catch up with James McAvoy, originally episode 133 from 2017-01-18.


Original writeup below!

A true smash of an episode right here as we welcome aboard the man with many faces, James McAvoy! Pip was able to snag some time with the warm and inviting Glasgow heavyweight to get in deep about his new film 'Split', directed by M Night Shyamalan, which is released on January 20th. The film concerns a main character with 'DID' (Dissociative Identity Disorder), played by James, who has an internal cast of around 23 personalities which we see rotate throughout the film. Surely an epic undertaking for any actor, and James breaks down his experience and how he approached this huge role. We hear how his past drama school days informed his outlook on his profession and how it can assist any actor's career, the film industry in general and Scotland's part in it, his acting past and in general, much science overall!...
