Tarantino speaks up on the `Casino Royale` adaptation again
Daniel Craig wouldnât be playing James Bond â if director Quentin Tarantino had his way.
Showbiz Spy explains that the eccentric movie maker said he would like to have directed Casino Royale â but with Pierce Brosnan as the suave British spy.
âThe reason they did Casino Royale all comes down to me,â Quentin said.
âI made it a point, I said I wanted to do Casino Royale. They were already on record as saying the movie was unfilmable but then after I said it and talked about it for a little bit â then the big thing on all the internets was that that was what all the fans wanted to see and so thatâs when they said, âOh, maybe itâs not so un-filmable.â
âActually if I had done the film, I wouldnât have done it with Daniel Craig, I would have done it with Pierce Brosnan.â
Tarantino also confessed to being a fan of romantic comedies.
âThese rom-coms get a bad rap but actually Iâve been a fan of romantic comedies since the 30s â they usually work on wordplay and everything like that, so I actually think Iâd be really good at it,â he said.
âIt is a guilty pleasure. I used to find it hard to actually go to the movies by myself, you want to have a date with you so you have an excuse to go.â
