The movie business is based on criminals. Some of them are in movies and some of them make movies.

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.

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'm not James Bond. There's your headline! It's very clear to me that he's the furthest from my character that it's possible to be. It's somebody I play.

I'd like to see (the films) go back to the books. I think (the films) need to be dirtier. I think that you should feel the man playing Bond could die at any moment. You don't feel that any more.

There are things about guys who are in the army. They're very particular, they have to be.

It's not my cause in life to be filthy rich. Being comfortable is enough.
