London, July 28 (ANI): Eva Green has revealed that she was bullied into doing the role of Bond girl Vesper Lynd in Casino Royale.
The actress said it was her agent’s push that led her to accept the role opposite Daniel Craig in the 2007 spy movie.
“When Casino Royale came out I was worried, as I’m not a ‘Bond girl’ kind of girl,” The Daily Star quoted her as saying.
“But the role wasn’t your typical James Bond female role. It wasn’t just typically sexy - I got lucky. My agent was very good in forcing me to do it.
“I wasn’t interested, but she bullied me into reading the script, and the character was a real treat, so no regrets,” she added. (ANI)
