Hugh Jackman Lives Out His Bond Fantasies  10/30/06

Hugh Jackman lived out his James Bond fantasies in his new movie Flushed Away, because his animated character is reminiscent of 007.

The Australian actor was one of the stars considered to replace Pierce Brosnan in the 007 franchise, but the role went to English actor Daniel Craig after Ewan McGregor turned it down.

However, in animated tale Flushed Away, Jackman pretended he was a secret agent when he voiced his character Roddy.

Jackman tells the New York Daily News, "Roddy fancies himself as a James Bond character. See, I get to live out my fantasies through this movie."
