The actress says she was approached by Bond movie bosses to star opposite Daniel Craig in Casino Royal but she denied the offer because she couldn't have felt comfortable playing a supporting role.
"They wanted me to play a Bond girl in Casino Royale," explained Angelina Jolie, who stars in new action movie Salt. "I said, 'Actually, I'd prefer to play him; I'd rather be Bond.' That was a joke of course. It was an interesting conversation."
"Salt is nothing like Bond. In so many spy films women are femme fatales and we wanted to avoid that. My character doesn't use her sexuality to get anything. It's the roughest I've looked. When we fight, it gets ugly. Somebody breaks my nose in the film. It's not pretty."
"I think when people write things for women at least with the films I've done in the past, such as Tomb Raider - they're not serious. They're not raw. They're not hard. So when we wanted a real female action hero, we looked towards something that wasn't written for a woman."by FW Editor |
