James McAvoy stops by The Daily Show

James McAvoy stops by The Daily Show tonight whilst promoting his latest movie X-Men: Days of Future Past.

Speaking to host Jon Stewart, James talks about the high and lows of flying around the world while promoting the movie. On a recent helicopter flight to Sao Paulo, James was offered to take the joystick by the pilot which he saw as too good an opportunity to turn down.

ā€œI looked at him and thought he was joking. And then he took his hands off the joystick…ā€ James said before continuing to explain, ā€œI did think the pilot was insane but I like that kind of crazy. So I was holding the joystick and was thinking this is doable, this was fine and then the slightest movement and then it would go shwwm……I think he (pilot) sh*t himself and took back the controls. But two days later flying out of Sao Paulo, we had the same helicopter pilot, heā€™s a very brave man, he let me do it again!ā€

The Daily Show airs tonight at 11pm on Comedy Central Extra. Check out the clip below:
