I just think that the collective experience of going to see a film is something you can't recreate.
Suits are looked at more now as a business thing which is kind of a shame. If you're not wearing it just for work, you should try and trick it up a bit.
As a kid, I kind of spent my life being amazed by being tricked. I love being tricked. I still love it today.
I genuinely believe that if you want to get in the film business, get in the film business.
If I wanted to make spy movies for the rest of my life, that would be one thing, but I don't want to just make spy movies.
The idea of regretting not doing this seemed insane to me. Sitting in the corner at a bar at age 60, saying: 'I could've been Bond. Buy me a drink.' That's the saddest place I could be. At least now at 60 I can say: 'I was Bond. Now buy me a drink.'
I find it very easy playing Bond. I think he's hilarious. He gets himself into some extraordinarily funny situations.
As soon as someone tells me: 'You're rather sexy,' I wish I could disappear. If somebody says: 'You were voted the world's sexiest man,' I have no idea what that means. How do I respond? 'Thank you' is the best you can do. George Clooney is the world's sexiest man, anyway.
When you're making movies you've got to get obsessive.
I always wanted to make movies.
It's a huge challenge, a huge responsibility. Bond is a huge iconic figure in movie history. These opportunities don't come along very often so I thought, 'Why not?'
The subject matter is very tricky. It's about the Munich massacre and what Mossad did afterwards with the assassination squads. I think it's a turning point in history, especially for the Palestinians.
You know, I think the film business is its own worst enemy because it sells movies on DVD footage and 'behind the scenes,' and now it's a real struggle trying to keep storylines and plotlines a secret.
Even the worst Bond movies, there's something to love about them.
My family and friends treat me as they always have.
You're creating new things in movies and people are going to steal them.
I guess you could say I've been in my share of violent movies.
I was sick and tired of being an English actor who did a lot of American movies because I was cheap and good.
