Rosamund Pike talks about her time on 'Die Another Day'

Following graduation at Oxford, Rosamund Pike was considering a job at Waterstone�s when she landed the role of double agent Miranda Frost in Die Another Day, with Pierce Brosnan - reports the Daily Mail.

�I was so clueless that I turned up for the audition with one of my mother�s concert dresses � which my grandmother had made and altered to fit me � an 80s taffeta confection with huge shoulder pads. The woman in the costume department took one look at it and tactfully said, �Gosh, that is a very beautiful dress, but I think we�re going to go with something like this,� and poured me into a white sheath.�



Her brush with Bond gave her a taste of the high life as she was sucked into the 007 machine � plenty more glamorous sheath dresses where that one came from, first-class air travel and international movie premieres. It might easily have gone to her head.

�Not at all,� she says, with a touching air of anguish. �I was too busy agonising over whether I was good enough. I still know all the lines from my scene with Judi Dench who plays M, because for the next ten years I went over and over them in my head, wishing I�d delivered them differently.
