Congratulations, Mr. Tumnus! Actor James McAvoy, the actor that played Mr. Tumnus in The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, and his wife of four years, Anne-Marie Duff, are expecting their first child!
Dame Helen Mirren, who appears alongside the couple in the movie The Last Station, said she thought the news was “fantastic.”
She added: “It’s wonderful news and it couldn’t happen to a greater couple.
“I’ve known Anne-Marie for a long time, long before I knew James. They’re a great, great couple, both unbelievably talented, both extremely nice and hard-working and professional, so it’s going to be a great baby.”
Duff, who starred in the BBC4 film Margot as prima ballerina Margot Fonteyn, recently spoke about wanting to become a mother. “I would love to have a baby. I’m not putting it off but unfortunately bodies don’t work that way,” she said.
Thanks, Sara, for pointing this out!
Wow, congratulations, Mr and Mrs McAvoy/Duff. Would be really sweet to see in a few years time a baby “beard-less dwarf” talking in Glasgow accent:)
Nice! Congratulations! That is so cool. I second the “beard-less dwarf” sentiment.
Very cool…even a faun should have a family…
