<p>GLASGOW, United Kingdom - June  2, 2026: Actor James McAvoy delivers a piercing look as he stands there wating for a film reset before walking to the entrance of NQ64 Arcade Bar in the Merchant City, as it's transformed into the GoGo Mexican bar depicted in the book Meantime. Set in Glasgow, Meantime follows the chaotic journey of Felix McAveety (James McAvoy), the prime suspect in the murder of his best friend, as he races to clear his name. As Felix's life continues to spiral out of control, he's aided by a colourful cast of characters. (Kyn Wai Chung)</p>
