Nosso informante coreano conta a história do ator que recusou o papel de vilão no novo filme de 007.

As I read page after page of the screenplay, [casting director] Jane Jenkins’ words that the movie had no relation to the current climate of the Korean peninsula turned out to be a lie.

As expected, Hollywood was once again using another country’s current climate for its own entertainment purposes. Especially, when 007 arrived in the airport in Korea and went to DMZ (demilitarised zone between the two Koreas), there were no Korean military personnel present, and the US armed forces greeted 007.

It seemed that the screenplay kept reminding the audience that North Korea was one of the most likely countries to commit acts of terrorism against the West. About two o’clock in the morning that night, I decided to turn down the role.

Esse cara é sangue bom.
