Do you think Sam Worthington would make a good Bond? What do you make of the Bond issue? You starred in the last one, and in Clash you starred opposite the man many are considering a potential successor to Daniel Craig. But it was really interesting to go from one to another. Sometimes having too much time and money is not a luxury in a way. We had four weeks to shoot it, whereas on Prince Of Persia we had six months.
