Matt wants Bond villain role

June 24, 2010

Doctor Who star Matt Smith has revealed he would like to play a James Bond villain in the next installment of the classic franchise.

While Daniel Craig has won over fans as the dashing spy, Matt believes his unconventional appearance would make him ideal material for a baddie.

The 27-year-old actor said he doesn't have the looks to play James Bond himself, even though it would sit nicely alongside the popularity of his current role as the legendary timelord.

"I don't think I'm handsome enough. I think I'd make a quite good, young Bond villain, he told the Radio Times.

"I've never got away with being the handsome leading man. I suppose I'm the peculiar, odd lead. Which may work in my favour."

He added that he loves playing the Doctor, as writer Steven Moffat told him the character is never sure what he's going to say next.

"His thoughts just combust spontaneously. I've tried to harness that brain-to-mouth rapidity," said Matt.

James Bond is a popular and glamourous theme for any celebration, such as an office party or Christmas party, and is just one of the many themes on offer from Westend Events.
