While Brosnan will likely always be best remembered as the 007 of the 1990s, the notoriety and success from performing in that role has enabled him to branch out into different types of work. He explains, “I’m at a point in my career where I can move around the map and have a great time doing it. I can pull off the occasional unexpected surprise, and all along, enjoy the work.”
It’s also encouraged Brosnan to try to push himself into great performances. He continues, “It’s a capricious old game, the world of being an actor. The pitfalls are many, and you have to be tough as old boots to stay at the table. I came in knowing full well it’s hard to be a great actor, and hard to be a good actor. But when you see great acting and good acting, it’s just intoxicating, and that’s what I wanted to be.”
