The X-Men star admits he is spooked whenever kids' toys are brought to life on-screen and he has traced his fears back to watching horror movie Child's Play as a youngster, which featured a murderous doll named Chucky.

"When dolls come to life in films, that just freaks me out, I just can't stand that. Chucky? Forget that. I remember when I was a little kid, and that little doll in the rocking chair going, 'Take the girl right up the hill and kiss the girl goodbye'... I'm like, forget that! That freaks me out," he said.
