Purefoy was screen tested for the role of James Bond in 1995, but ultimately
lost the role to Pierce Brosnan. Throughout 2004 and 2005 Purefoy's name was
rumoured as a possible candidate to replace Brosnan as agent 007.
James Purefoy was attached to star in the 2005 film V for Vendetta, but was
replaced by Hugo Weaving for undisclosed reasons. Rumors and speculation by
many news outlets suggested that Purefoy's departing of the film was due to
an opportunity to play James Bond in the 2006 film Casino Royale [1].
However, this news was invalidated when Daniel Craig was announced as the
new James Bond.
He was formerly in a relationship with fellow actor, Holly Aird, with whom
he has a son, Joseph, born in 1997. |
