What Hugh Jackman Said About Playing James Bond

— -- Hugh Jackman hasn't completely dismissed the idea of playing James Bond.

The 46-year-old "Pan" star recently revealed that he was offered the job while filming the second "X-Men" but turned it down.

"I was like, ‘Ah, I don’t think it’s the right time,'" he told the Australian news program "The Project," according to Entertainment Weekly.

The Aussie actor said he's still open to playing the iconic British spy.

"I'd certainly give it a thought," Jackman told E! News. "I don't think there's an actor on the planet who wouldn't at least say, 'Oh, let me have a think about that.'"

Daniel Craig is giving up the role after appearing in his final Bond film, "Spectre," which opens in theaters Nov. 6.
