John Travolta says he will continue to do negative roles till he gets to play the villain in a James Bond movie.
The 'Pulp Fiction' star says playing the baddie in a 007 movie will help him "close the chapter on playing villains", reported the Telegraph.
"I would love that. They're going a different way with their villain in this next film but I've spoken to (Bond movie producer) Barbara Broccoli about it and she loves the idea, so that would be great," said the 'Saturday Night Fever' star.
Travolta will next be seen in the heist movie 'The Forger' then as John Gotti Sr in a 2015 biopic about the mobster 'Gotti: In the Shadow of My Father.'
The actor, who would turn 60 on February 18, does not look forward to it.
"I don't love the idea of turning 60, so I had hoped to keep it under the radar," he said.
