Hugh Jackman wants to be James Bond. He has said his biggest biggest regret is not accepting the lead role in Casino Royale, which went to Daniel Craig. Jackman, 44, claims he had “date issues” when he was approached for the role, but said his friend, Craig did the character real justice. The Australian actor went on to say "At the time the character was wrong for me, but when I saw Daniel in the movie, I thought maybe I should have been more interested, because it was great" Hugh playfully added "I will just wait. The good thing about Daniel is he's 62 now. He's falling apart at the seams. So I just keep telling him, 'I'm ready, whenever you want to let Bond go, I'm ready’” This news comes out after the latest British spy epic, Skyfall, overtook James Cameron’s Avatar’s British box office record in just 40 days to become the highest grossing film of all time with £94 million in sales. The X-Men actor was also on the red carpet in London last night for the world premiere of Les Miserables.
