James McAvoy suddenly stands up in middle of Seth Meyers interview due to cramp: 'I’m not gonna fart!'

The "Speak No Evil" actor was in the middle of discussing his fear of the circus when he stood up.

James McAvoy had a very physical reaction to his Late Night with Seth Meyers interview last night. 

The Speak No Evil actor was in the middle of chatting with Meyers about his fear of the circus when he suddenly cut the host off. 

“I’m going to need to — I’m so sorry — I’m going to need to stand up,” McAvoy confessed as he leaped onto his feet. To which an alarmed Meyers replied, “Why are you standing up?” 

McAvoy quickly cleared the air. “I’m not gonna fart!” He prefaced as the audience burst into laughter, before leaning backwards and letting out a groan. “Cramp! Just cramp!”

The actor then adjusted his jacket and took his seat again. “Did you really?” Meyers asked of McAvoy’s sudden spasm. “Wow. I would’ve been so happy if the reason you stood up was to fart.”

McAvoy replied, “I would not have been happy, I can tell you that.” 

Meyers then joked that McAvoy was “showing off” with the move. “Why, because I had a cramp?” McAvoy responded.

“No, I feel like somebody gave you these really nice clothes and were like, ‘If somewhere, halfway through, if you could fake a cramp just so we can see how the outfit looks.'"

Consider McAvoy, who was wearing an all black ensemble, pleased with Meyers' compliment. “Seth likes my clothes,” he teased. “Seth said he liked my clothes.”

The pair then seamlessly returned to their interview, with McAvoy later sharing photographic evidence of his love for American theme parks like Universal Studios, Dorney Park, and Hersheypark.

"Can I say something?" Meyers asked as he looked at the photo of McAvoy at Dorney Park. "This is the most American I've ever seen you look. This guy stands to fart."
