Colin Farrell Not Interested In 007 Role

2007-12-22来源:
  已经正式辞演邦德的皮尔斯·布鲁斯南,相中了同为爱尔兰人的柯林·法瑞尔,认为他最适合演下一任007。而柯林·法瑞尔最近却表示他不想成为下一个詹姆斯·邦德。

Irish actor Colin Farrell says he is not interested in becoming the next James Bond. Working as Alexander the Great seems to be enough. In an interview to discuss his soon to be released film "Alexander," Farrell, 28, was asked about a suggestion by the outgoing James Bond, Pierce Brosnan, last week that he get the job because "he'll eat the head off them all". Farrell feigned outrage at the thought of becoming the sixth James Bond in the series, joking he was shocked by Brosnan's suggestion and if he got the job, he just might employ an Irish accent to confuse fans of the suave British agent. "The idea of me playing James Bond got into the press, but it is not true. I would not like to do it. They should find someone the audience has no history with,' Farrell said. Farrell stars in the upcoming Oliver Stone film "Alexander," which is slated to opened in late November. It was a role that had plenty of action for him as he broke an ankle and a wrist while filming battle scenes on location in Thailand. Finding a successor to Brosnan as agent 007, the character who has sold nearly $4 billion in tickets since "Dr. No" hit the screens 42 years ago, has been the subject of intense speculation for months. Brosnan fulfilled his four-film contract with "Die Another Day" in 2002. The next film is not slated to come out until 2006. Other names mentioned as possibilities to put on Bond's trademark tuxedo have been Hugh Jackman and Jude Law.
