Asked if he would've played Bond, he said: "Sure yeah, why not? I love Bond movies, I've loved them since I was a kid. Everyone wants to be a double-oh spy."
However, since the 66-year-old actor has now ruled himself out, he's instead revealed who he would like to see as a replacement for Daniel Craig as the next 007.
"Hmm. Tom Hiddleston? Actually, after we saw him kicking all that ass in 'Kingsman', I think Colin Firth would be a fine Bond,” he told British GQ magazine.
