How the hell did I end up playing James Bond? When I first got approached, I just thought: No, not at the moment. All I want to do is move on. People always say, "That stuff you did in Love Is the Devil: Study for a Portrait of Francis Bacon must have been difficult. It's when things are unclear and when you don't know what you're doing--that's when things are difficult. As far as I'm concerned, I want to be nowhere else.
It's difficult in film because everybody wants to make a safe bet with roles. But if you are going to do stuff then you should be getting strong reactions. I don't want audiences to be going, 'Yeah, that's all right. Who the fuck knows?
The Latest Update on the Next James Bond Movie
If I did another Bond movie, it would only be for the money. I've just got to step up to the plate and deal with it.

That's the pitfall and it could happen to me. I've been working so hard, for however long it is I've been doing this, to try and stick to doing stuff I totally believe in and that would be wiped out. I thought, God, this is all right: I'm doing what I want to do. And that was a huge weight off my shoulders. I just wanted to see him [James Bond] make a few mistakes. I want to make the audience believe that it's all going to go wrong and then when it goes right it's much more exciting.
