Daniel Radcliffe wants to star in a James Bond film.
The 'Harry Potter' actor is keen to swap is wand for a gun but would rather be a villain in the famous spy movie franchise than take on the role of 007 because he doesn't think he has the body for it like hunk Daniel Craig.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Daniel thinks he would be an excellent villain in the Bond films. He loves the franchise but admires the villains as much as Bond.
"He feels he could appear as a modern bad guy, an evil mastermind who wants to take down MI5.
"He may not have the physique to take on Daniel Craig, but his broody acting can make him a menace.
The source added: "And like the old Bond films, he hopes the role may be recurring."
Fans haven't seen a Bond villain return in the movies since the 1960s and 1970s when Blofeld and Jaws came back but Radcliffe hopes his character could secure a more regular spot.
Meanwhile, Radcliffe, 24, will star in his first romantic comedy 'What If' this year, alongside Zoe Kazan and Adam Driver.
It tells the story of a medical student drop-out, played by Radcliffe, who's had bad luck in relationships.
'What If' will hit screens in New York and Los Angeles in America on August 1.

Adam Driver admits it was surreal being cast in 'Star Wars Episode VII'.
The 'Girls' actor, who is believed to have signed up to play a Darth Vader-inspired character in J.J. Abrams' upcoming intergalactic adventure, admits it has been an incredible experience being part of a franchise he grew up watching.
Driver joins original cast members, including Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew and Kenny Baker in the forthcoming film.
He explained to Empire magazine: "You grew up watching something and then suddenly you're in the midst of all those characters with them talking to each other! You want to make R2-D2 noises and lightsaber whooshes - but nobody actually did."
Driver isn't the only newcomer on set, John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Andy Serkis, Oscar Isaac, Domhnall Gleeson and Max von Sydow have also been cast.
Filming began in Abu Dhabi earlier this month and is then expected to continue at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire, England.
The movie - which has a screenplay written by director Abrams and Lawrence Kasban - is due to open worldwide on December 18, 2015.

Anthony Mackie wants to star as Olympian Jesse Owens in a new biopic.
The 35-year-old actor "badly wants to play" the athlete who was known for sprinting and his ability to excel during the long jump, reports Deadline.com.
Owens won four gold medal performances at the 1936 Berlin Olympics, and infuriated Adolf Hitler by doing so as the dictator was hoping German athletes would dominate the games with victories and therefore let him show the world a resurgent Nazi Germany.
Mackie reunited with 'We Are Marshall' writer Jamie Linden, and they're teaming up to produce the film which was scripted by George Olson.
The sportsman's - who died in Arizona, on March 31, 1980, surrounded by his family - life was previously detailed in 1984 'The Jesse Owens Story', where Dorian Harewood played the athlete and the drama won a 1985 Primetime Emmy Award.
Meanwhile, Mackie recently hit the big screen in 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' alongside an A-List cast which includes Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson and Sebastian Stan.

James McAvoy says the 'Frankenstein' movie isn't true to the narrative in Mary Shelley's novel.
The 35-year-old actor, who plays Doctor Frankenstein in the forthcoming film, claims it explores the themes outlined in the book but insists there are a number of differences in the plot itself.
He told CraveOnline.com: "It's faithful to the essence of what she was writing and it's faithful to the themes of obsession and transgression and crossing moral and ethical boundaries and stuff, and whether man can become the creator and all that. Definitely all about the same things, but narrative-wise it's different."
McAvoy stars opposite Daniel Radcliffe and previously revealed the titular monster isn't at the centre of the film.
He previously said: "It's set in the period but it's not really the existential kind of monster's [story], it's more about the relationship between Doctor Frankenstein, who I play, and Igor who Dan [Daniel Radcliffe] plays. The character of Igor isn't in Mary Shelley's book, you know what I mean?"

Amber Heard expects to be typecast.
The 28-year-old star - who is dating Johnny Depp - believes women are either treated as sex objects or they play an ugly best friend in movies.
She told W magazine: "As a woman, I usually have two options: Sex Object or the Best Friend Who Isn't Sexy. It's not creatively fulfilling to just be sexy. I did nothing to look the way I look. The genetic cards that anyone is dealt are not in their control, so to take pride in my looks would be a mistake. And besides, in L.A. there's always someone more beautiful!"
Heard was thrilled to find 2009's 'Zombieland' director Ruben Fleischer didn't expect her to play a sexy zombie but she was able to embrace a more gory look.
She added:"I remember getting a small part in the movie 'Zombieland'.
"I said to the director, 'Do I get to play a true zombie or am I a cleavage zombie?' I had this fear that he was going to want me to be a zombie in my underwear! He said, 'No--take it as far as you want.' I said, 'Get the vomit packs ready! I'm going to be ugly and gross!' "

Jourdan Dunn wants to become a Bond girl.
The 23-year-old model, who has dabbled with presenting for Jay Z's Life+Times YouTube channel, now wants to follow in the footsteps of catwalk friend Cara Delevingne by talking up acting.
Speaking at the World Music Awards this week, she told The Sun newspaper: "I'd like to maybe do some comedy, maybe something a bit serious as well. I'd really like to be a Bond girl."
The supermodel, who has worked for Victoria's Secret, Prada and Marc Jacobs, was also spotted at a gala at Cannes Film Festival recently, where she will have mixed with some of the biggest names in the movie industry.
Meanwhile, Delevingne, 21, has also expressed a desire to be cast in a James Bond film alongside hunk Daniel Craig, and has already appeared in a number of movies, including thrilled 'The Face Of An Angel', alongside Kate Beckinsale and Daniel Bruhl.
Talking about her acting ambitions, she said: "A Bond girl would be fun. Are you kidding?! I'd do it."
Last month it was reported that she will play the role of Henrietta in period romance film 'Tulip Fever' and she has landed a small role in the upcoming fantasy 'Pan', directed by Joe Wright.
