Nobody forced him. With Duncan dead, the kingship would be offered to one of Duncan's nearest relatives.

How about the king's cousin, a war hero, devoted to Scotland and admired by all? As Ross says, "Then 'tis most likely the sovereignty will fall on Macbeth." Macbeth was next in line, and he wanted the crown--there was no forcing involved.
