James McAvoy has been tipped to play the role of Ian Fleming in a biopic.

London: James McAvoy has been tipped to play the role of the James Bond creator Ian Fleming in a 40-million-dollar biopic. The Scottish actor has reportedly been offered the part by the producers of the film based on the journalist and author who inked his 12 thrillers about 007 following a distinguished wartime career in British intelligence.
The 30-year-old star was said to be formally "attached" to the Fleming project, reports the Independent. The movie will refer to an acclaimed biography of Fleming written by Andrew Lycett. ANI
