World-renowned British theoretical physicist, cosmologist and author Stephen Hawking wants to be a movie star after he asked to play the villain in a new James Bond flick.
The 72-year-old wheelchair-ridden ALS (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) survivor, in an interview in UK’s Wired magazine, said:”‘I think the wheelchair and the computer voice would fit the part”.
If his wish is granted, however, it wouldn’t be the first time Hawking would be featuring in the big screen as he has been animated on the popular series, ‘The Simpsons’ and he has also played a cameo in ‘Star Trek’.
