Jessica Chastain is nearly unrecognisable on this stunning W magazine cover

One of my goals is to play a villain in a Bond film.

Superstar Oscar-nominated actress and straight-up goddess Jessica Chastain is down for being in a James Bond movie but no way does she want to play the eye-candy.

“I would hear, ‘Who is the real Jessica?’ a lot”, she says. “They never worry about ‘knowing” them”, she tells the mag.

She’s previously alluded to her Bond bad guy desires back in 2013, when she told The Playlist: “Enough of the graceful characters, I want to get my hands dirty”.

What do you think about the actress’ candid comments?

After that, she will be working on the prequel to “Snow White and the Huntsman” with Chris Hemsworth and Charlize Theron in England. “Or is it? They were probably warriors, too”.

Usually tight-lipped on her love life, she also opened up to W about her four-year romance with Italian clothing exec Gian Luca Passi de Preposulo.

“He’s a gentleman. And that’s very important to me”, she says. “He’s from an old-school Italian family”, she said.

In one of the most provocative shots, the star poses in a yellow see-through lace halter dress by Givenchy, exposing a far more than we’re used to seeing from Chastain. “No one in his family has ever been divorced”. “I’m speaking out as an audience member who is going to the cinema and noticing there’s a problem here because I don’t see women being represented”. That actually would be kind of incredible. “In my head, I was thinking, I have no idea what I’m doing here, and I don’t belong”, she revealed. “I made it through the fire to the Palais, and it changed my life”.
