Hollywood star Pierce Brosnan says he was frustrated that his James Bond films wasn’t “gritty and real”. The 63-year-old actorportrayed the spy in four films - ‘Goldeneye’, ‘Tomorrow Never Dies’, ‘The World is Not Enough’ and ‘Die Another Day’. In an interview he said that he wishes the plots weren’t so outlandish. He said: “There was a certain frustration within me as the films went on, as I could see the world happening around me and the movies ... I wanted Bond to get a little more gritty and real and down and dirty, but however you try to nurse it along, the scripts would come along with the same outlandish scenarios.” The actor added: “So you go with the flow, and just enjoy the great experience of travelling the world and being this character. I had a great time on ‘Die Another Day’. There were things I read in the script that were so ridiculous, like the invisible car, but I just tried to act my way through it and believe in it.”
“You can really give yourself a massive headache and a great amount of stress trying to wangle some sense of believability into it.”
