James McAvoy Addresses Hollywood’s Aging Fears, Says He’s Doing Okay

James McAvoy, renowned for starring in several franchises, discusses Hollywood’s aging anxieties with host Romesh Ranganathan on The Romesh Ranganathan Show.

“I’m doing okay,” McAvoy asserts when questioned about societal views on ageing. He emphasizes that his self-perception is “not bad-looking.”

For McAvoy, attractiveness isn’t a factor in securing roles; he believes casting decisions are based on performance rather than physical appearance. Consequently, the actor embraces aging as part of life.

However, not all actors share this perspective. Some opt for cosmetic procedures to maintain a youthful look.

McAvoy cautions against such practices, arguing that they can lead to unnatural results and an unsettling appearance.
