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.

I genuinely believe that if you want to get in the film business, get in the film business.

The character I play has all these revolutionary ideas. I think the classic thing is that majority people who are criticising it probably have never read the books, and need to. And I'm sure that the Catholic Church, which is being directed as you know, can handle it.

I'd hate to feel in a comfort zone while I am working. That's not the way I like to do things. I want to be pressurized and challenged every day.

My mother gave me a real kick toward cooking, which was that if I wanted to eat, I'd better know how to do it myself.

I don't say: 'can't do that', 'won't do that'. I've never thought in that way about work.

It's not like I was trying to be sexy but I had to get fit because I had to be able to do stunts. Also I wanted that, if Bond took his clothes off, he looked like a man who did what he did, which was kill people for a living. I thought the only way to do that was to work out and get fit and buff and get physically into shape.
