Hugh Jackman Has ‘007’ Role In His Sights
In an interview last week with Australian news program ‘The Project’ Hugh Jackman talked about another part he has his eyes on, James Bond.
Asked if he would be up for the challenge of looking suave in dark suits, Mr. Jackman said, “I’d seriously consider it.”
It turns out, Mr. Jackman was once approached to fill the role, as he was getting ready to film “X-Men 2.”
“I was like, ah, I don’t think it’s the right time. But it was not an easy one to give up,” the actor admitted. As we know, the role went to Daniel Craig, who will be sipping James Bond Martinis (shaken not stirred) onscreen for the 4th time in “Spectre,” out this November.
But take heart, Hugh, in Hollywood, there is not upper age limit on the roles you can claim for yourself as a straight, white male, as the Bond Girls always stay young.
Have a terrific holiday weekend.
