James McAvoy says Hollywood only sees Scotland as unemployment, drug abuse, alcohol abuse and domestic abuse “all the f***** abuse”.
The X-Men star says whenever they greenlight a Scottish film it’s the same grim Trainspotting misery porn every single time.
McAvoy, who grew up on a tough Glasgow estate, admits Scots talent still has to flee south because the industry at home can barely support 6 million people.
He wants real, entertaining stories about working-class life instead of endless dysfunction.

I mean how on Earth could they get ME?? It's almost inconceivable. But, you know, not very. I so enjoyed this. Haven't seen it back, but it felt like one of the best Who interviews I've done. Arthur and Karen are not a day older (yes, I know I am) and the loveliest people.
Philip Hinchcliffe said at BFI Southbank that he would like to see Doctor Who return to its classic format of each story spanning 100 minutes, or four x 25-minute episodes.
"That's a very good time for a movie or a television story to be told, in 100 minutes.”
NEW: #DoctorWho will continue for further series on BBC One, with work underway on scripts for future series, irrespective of Disney's decision on its partnership with the BBC. More details:
