Review: 'Prada' needs more devilishness Jul 4, 2006

But recently, his self-produced romantic comedy Laws of Attraction, with Julianne Moore, and his crime thriller After the Sunset both underperformed.

But I personally believe that had he not been cast as Bond, those roles would have unfortunately not come to him," says John Cork, co-author of James Bond: The Legacy and Bond Girls Are Forever: The Women of James Bond.
