Movie Casting

The Hollywood star once expressed his desire to play a James Bond antagonist, calling it the only villain role that could tempt him back to the dark side. Despite conversations with producers, the opportunity never came to fruition.

The embattled star secures his first significant Hollywood project since 2018, marking a dramatic career turnaround following years of legal battles and industry exile.
