Welcome to the Punch - Heist & Chase Clip

With M. Night Shyamalans new thriller Split hitting screens this week, we sat down with the films star  James McAvoy  to discuss playing Kevin, a complicated character who suffers from a psychological disorder that means he has 23 distinct personalities, with the plot revolving around the emergence of a terrible 24th.The disorder that this group of people live with explains McAvoy Is D.I.D.  Disociative Identity Disorder  a condition that means theres a group of people sharing one body. So you have one person to begin with, and at a point early in their life, they suffer trauma that is generally repeated, and inescapable. The way that that the person deals with it is to fragment. Is to say Alright, what part of me can maybe help me through this? And instead of just utilising that attribute or personality trait, they personify it.A specific personality  called Hedwig  helps Kevin through that trauma.One of the children that I play in this film would take his place. So Hedwig took that suffering, took that beating, took that abuse. And the reason why it was Headwig in particular is because Hedwig is all about naivety and joy and looking for the fun in life, and he took that for the rest of Kevin. And then as Kevin went through the rest of his life, there were more and more and more parts of his personality that were personified and took on their own lives if you like. So ultimately he ends up having 23 personalities.McAvoy goes onto explain which personalities came naturally in the above video, and how one could turn from happy to malevolent in the blink of an eye, while Shyamalan talks about the challenges involved in directing such a complicated character. Split is in cinemas this Friday, January 20.

Everything you need to know about Scott McCall from Teen Wolf

Who is Scott McCall?

Ridley Scott recently told Entertainment Weekly that hed originally conceived and pitched an alternate ending to his 1979 masterpiece Alien. Its hard to imagine the film concluding any differently to the way that classic coda plays out  or, indeed, any scarier. But Scott described an altogether darker denouement which saw Sigourney Weavers Ripley getting her head ripped off by the xenomorph. Fandoms Kim and Chris argue why it was the right decision to veto Scotts vision  and leave Ellen Ripley alive to battle against the aliens three more times in the franchise.
