Skyfall's Javier Bardem: 'It was fun to flirt with James Bond'

He’s sexy, he’s Spanish and last night Javier Bardem made heatworld very happy by chatting to us about his new role as the baddie in the new James Bond flick Skyfall.

We’re not going to deny it, when he started to talking to us, we totally swooned.

But in Skyfall, out on Friday, Javier doesn’t play your typical James Bond enemy – because he’s rather flirty with the super-spy.

Javier told us: “It was a fine line between playing him camp and [playing him] menacing. I mean, the camp aspect [of the character] was important but it wasn’t the only thing.

“It’s one note but it’s not the whole melody. I think the character is really ‘open’ to many things. He is not attached to any label, let’s say!”

The Academy Award winning actor, 43, married to Penelope Cruz, also talked about a particular scene where he gets very close to Bond.

He laughed: “Intimate, yes. It was fun. We worked the scene and we really had fun.”

But one aspect of his character Raoul Silva, Javier was less keen about was the bad guy’s flowing blonde locks.

When asked if blondes have more fun, he said: “I don’t know if it was the blonde but I certainly had a lot of fun. I was looking forward to getting my hair back to normal. It is not for me normally!”
