Javier Bardem Selected as Next Bond Villain

It takes a special actor to take on the role of a villain, and no doubt Javier Bardem has just what the job requires.

The “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” stud recently confirmed to Nightline that he has officially signed on to play the evil part in the 23rd “James Bond” movie rumored to be titled “Skyfall.”

Bardem told, "I am very excited. My parents took me to watch the movies and I saw all of them. So to play that is going to be fun."

Back in 2007, Javier won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for playing a very scary serial killer villain in “No Country for Old Men.”
