Olga Kurylenko: 'I Know How Addictive Videogames Are'

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Now you're appearing in a videogame. What's it like seeing yourself on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3?
OLGA KURYLENKO: I think it's very funny. I could never imagine this — it's a cartoon where suddenly a little version of you exists. I'm very excited about it.

Do you think being in the Quantum of Solace game will get you back into gaming?
I will play this game, definitely. I did the movie and went through all the body scanning and voice acting, so I have to play. This is probably going to be my first game that I'm going to play through. I have to try it, at least. I'm going to give it to my whole family, because I'm so happy.

Any reactions from any of your male relatives on your videogame role?
I'm sure the boys will love it. They can play videogames until they're 100 years old.

Someone at Activision told me Daniel Craig is a gamer — and supposedly played Guitar Hero on the Quantum set. Did you and he ever talk about videogames?
I didn't know that. We never spoke about it.

What can you tell us about Camille, the character you play in both the game and movie?
She is a very strong woman and determined to get to her goal, which is revenge. Something really bad happened to her as a child and all she wants to do is get back at the people who did it. She's not afraid to die.

What was it like becoming a Bond girl?
It's a great experience — a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It's been like an incredible dream.

What kind of action or stunts did they let you do on set?
I was doing a lot of action things. They trained me so well that I'm now prepared for everything. There was lots of intensive training — stuff like fighting, how to do stunts, shoot a gun, and skydive.

So you jumped out of an airplane in this movie?
I didn't jump out of an airplane — we did it in a wind tunnel. I didn't know these existed. It's a professional place where they all rehearse and do special exercises. When you go in it's the same feeling as if you're in the air. You learn how to position your body right to go up and go down or right or left just as if you were skydiving from a plane. I learned so much. I got hooked on it. I'd love to do it as a hobby, if I had the time. It's a real adrenaline rush.

What were some of the locales you were able to visit?
I went to Panama and Chile and, of course, Pinewood Studios in London. The rest of the production also went to Austria and Italy. I loved both of the locales I went to. Chile touched me because those mountains and deserts were incredible to me. I really liked the fact that there was nothing there. The landscape was just amazing and beautiful.
