JAMES BOND villain MADS MIKKELSEN had never seen any of the spy films before starring in CASINO ROYALE.
The Danish born actor admits that he was never interested in the 007 franchise before he was offered a part in the 2006 picture opposite Daniel Craig.
But after completing work on the movie, Mikkelsen purchased a box set of all of the Bond films - to find out what had happened previously in the series
He says, "To be honest, I hadn't seen any Bond films before I did that one. But I did not have a great relationship to Bond at all, and I didn't go back and see the other movies before making Casino Royale.
"There is nothing wrong with the other ones. They were perfect for their time, but this script was fairly radical for a lot of people, and we had to catch up."
And although he isn't the biggest Bond fan, Mikkelsen is full of praise for Craig.
"I'm very proud to have been a part of it. Daniel Craig was excellent. He is a fantastic and a great guy to work with. We were a very tight unit making Bond."
