"I grew up watching Bond. Going to see a Bond movie was like seeing ‘Star Wars’ — you’d go see it six to 10 times. He’d walk into a room with a hundred guys and one lady at the bar. He’d walk up and grab himself a martini and end up beating the crap out of the hundred guys and walk out with the lady. It’s like girls and Barbie."
The Post confirms our scoop that Ioan Gruffudd is the other current contender for the role of EON’s suave spy.
