Clive Owen is actually God

Clive Owen

With the success of [tag]Inside Man[/tag] and everything else he does, [tag]Clive Owen[/tag] has decided to take a much needed vacation. With four other films in the works, including [tag]Sin City 2[/tag], Clive plans to take some time off after his next barrage of great movies. He was quoted as saying,

I’ve made several films back to back, and have told my agent that after I finish the last one, I will be absolutely unavailable for a long time - five months minimum.

I generally don’t praise anyone in Hollywood, but Clive Owen is 100% badass. He even turned down the role for 007 because he is too cool. He went to say,

Playing James Bond would have been like entering a golden prison, and I doubt that would have suited me. I may be the only actor who consistently said, ‘No, no and no’.

They offered him 1 billion dollars to play [tag]James Bond[/tag] and he turned it down. After that, they asked to just follow him around for a few days and call that a James Bond movie. Then they gave up and hired [tag]Daniel Craig[/tag] for $8,000 and a box of adult diapers.
