On July 31, Tomer Sisley will be appearing in Largo Winch: The Price of Money At the movie theater. On the occasion of the release of the third part of his successful saga, the actor was received by Léa Salamé this Saturday June 15, 2024 in What an era!, which broadcast the last number of the season on France 2. During the interview, the host asked her guest to explain to her why he had refused a role in one of the films in the James Bond saga. This question made the actor lose his smile, who clearly has bad memories of this career choice.
Spectators stunned by Tomer Sisley’s confession
“Whore…“, he blurted. “On top of that, I think it was bullshit because for me, it was the best James Bond. It was Skyfall”, replied the ex-hero of Balthazar on TF1, causing strong disappointed exclamations from the audience on the set. Léa Salamé was also very surprised: “Oh yeah ?! But what happened? How do we refuse?“. The one who is a regular in international American productions (he played opposite Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Aniston and Sharon Stone, editor’s note) has justified himself.
The actor bitterly regrets
“The film began with a twenty-minute fight sequence with a character. It was this character that was proposed to me, but he didn’t say a word. So I told them, ‘Guys, you can get a stuntman, he’ll do it just as well as me.’ I do not see the interest. Obviously I want to be in a James Bond, (…) but my job is an actor. It’s not a stunt. So give me something to play and I’ll happily come. But if I don’t have a line, if I have nothing to defend as an actor… I don’t want to become…“, explained the actor before being cut off by Léa Salamé, when he was about to say that he did not want to lock himself in a box as an actor, even if it meant not sharing the screen with Daniel Craig. But Tomer Sisley has since changed his mind.Yeah, I regret… Well yes!“, he concluded, in despair, burying his face in his hands. To console him, Dany Boon who was to his left congratulated him on his performance in the series Messiahwhich delighted Netflix subscribers in 2020.
