Hugh Jackman puts out a plea to James Bond 21 producers to cast him as 007

Casino Royale - 01-11-04
First the rumours went around the press, then he admitted making them up himself, now Australian actor Hugh Jackman has called out to producers of the next James Bond film to cast him as the superspy - reports IOL.

The X-Men star who has been linked to the role for the past 18 months said: "There is something very secretive about the way they cast the role. I've never had an official call asking, 'Are you interested or not?'



"But there's no guy I know that wouldn't want that role - and that includes me. Anyone who says otherwise is lying."

His agent told MI6, "Hugh has never officially been approached to play the role of James Bond".

Thanks to `Zao` for the alert.
