Bruno Tonioli wants to play a Bond villain.

The 67-year-old TV star has revealed that his dream role would be to play a baddie in a 007 action flick.

Speaking about his love of movies, Bruno told the Radio Times magazine: "I met Liza Minnelli and it blew my mind ... Actually, I’d like to play a Bond villain. Or a mafioso. Or a baddie in a Guy Ritchie movie. Something completely against type. That would be so much fun!"

Bruno has replaced David Walliams on 'Britain's Got Talent', and he's been forced to learn on his feet since he joined the show's judging panel.

He said: "The energy comes automatically during filming, but then I’m dead, absolutely dead.

"I lost my voice at the end of the first day on 'Britain’s Got Talent' because I didn’t pace myself. I didn’t know that auditions can run for two or three hours. At least I’m a quick learner."

Meanwhile, Bruno recently confessed that he forget the advice of his colleagues and hit the Golden Buzzer "at the wrong time" during the audition stage.

He shared: "I told Simon [Cowell], I never watched the show before. But I never watch anything I'm in, I never even watched ‘Strictly’ or ‘Dancing With the Stars’.

"I want to feel free to give it my own personal spin, not copy what someone before me has done, if that makes sense.

"They were like, 'here are the rules, you press it then, not then', but that went out the window, I honestly got caught up in the moment, forgot everything I'd been told and just reacted instinctively.

"I looked up, Simon was in stitches, Alesha [Dixon] looked shocked! But that really happened. I mean, it wasn't planned. I honestly had no idea I'd do that in the moment.

"Anyway, Simon tells the crowd there's no rules, to forget what they've been told and act badly behaved, so I listened! Come on, he's the boss!"
