Sean Connery, Diamonds Are Forever
The late Sean Connery was not a fan of the overwhelming success and lasting legacy of his role as James Bond.
“Bond was the role with which he became forever linked. It brought him the fame and the escape and, most importantly, the financial security he had always sought; whether it brought him deep satisfaction is open to interpretation. By the time of Diamonds are Forever he was so fed up with the money that he gave his fee to charity. ‘I have always hated that damned James Bond,’ he has said. ‘I’d like to kill him,’” The Guardian reported in 2004.

Kristen played a game of Know Your Lines, and when a line from the Charlie’s Angels reboot came up, she said: “I hated making that movie. I don’t know what else to say to you.”
“Honestly, the three… you can’t touch (that),” she said of the previous movies before the reboot. “Cameron, Lucy and Drew…I love that movie. I love that movie. If that says anything.”
She would later discuss her frustration with her 2020 rom-com, Happiest Season, in an interview with Them.
“The identity was beaten out of my goals there. I was getting so many studio executive notes about my hair and my clothes. I was like, ‘You did read the script. You did hire me. What are we doing here?’ It was f-cking annoying. And it’s fine, because I guess there are ways that you need to shroud things for everyone to easily digest. And I’m down with that. And honestly, f-cking hats off to Clea [DuVall, director], because I don’t have the patience [to do] that,” she said.
