Rami Malek has promised a complex James Bond villain for the upcoming film No Time To Die.
James Bond villains have a reputation as being over the top and a bit on the one-dimensional side. Their plans are often completely nuts and have been the subject of parody numerous times. There is an argument to be made, however, that the villains in the Danial Craig era of James Bond have been a bit more grounded and three dimensional and it seems that Rami Malek’s character in No Time To Die will continue in this direction.
During a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Rami Malek talked a bit about his James Bond villain in No Time to Die, calling the character complex. Rami Malek also praised Daniel Craig’s professional behavior as James Bond:
“He’s quite unique. He’s very complex. Daniel [Craig] calls him ‘misunderstood.’ But I had the most extraordinary time going head-to-head with [Craig]. He is a consummate professional. What was really special about that is, you see these movies, and I love the Bond films, but on day one, going out, on stage, on set, in front of the lens…I actually got a Broadway version, sitting in the front seat, watching Bond do it firsthand. It took me a second to step back and go, ‘What’s my first line again?’”
What do you all make of Rami Malek’s comments? Are you looking forward to seeing Rami Malek play a complex James Bond villain? Are you looking forward to Daniel Craig’s final James Bond performance in No Time to Die? Let us know what you think in the comments below!
Here is the official synopsis for Daniel Craig’s No Time to Die:
Bond has left active service and is enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica. His peace is short-lived when his old friend Felix Leiter from the CIA turns up asking for help. The mission to rescue a kidnapped scientist turns out to be far more treacherous than expected, leading Bond onto the trail of a mysterious villain armed with dangerous new technology.
Directed by Cary Joji Fukunaga from a script co-written by Neal Purvis & Robert Wade and Phoebe Waller-Bridge, No Time to Die stars Daniel Craig, Ralph Fiennes, Naomie Harris, Ben Whishaw, Lea Seydoux, Rory Kinnear, Jeffrey Wright, Rami Malek, Ana de Armas, Lashana Lynch, Billy Magnussen, David Dencik and Dali Benssalah.
No Time To Die will be released in theaters on April 8, 2020.
