“Are there jobs that I did that I wish maybe I hadn’t done? Maybe, yeah, but probably not the one people are thinking,” the actor told the outlet. “There’s going to be defining moments, and there’s going to be not regretful moments—It’s just the tapestry of it all, isn’t it?”

His comments echo an interview with British GQ last year, where he said, “Look, put it this way—It’s done no harm to my career to be part of a movie franchise that has made more than $1 billion. Every working actor would say the same thing. It’s provided – a lot.

He added, “But I take issue with the whole thing being just a bit of a joke. Everyone involved worked as hard as they could on those films, including myself.”

Jamie went on to say that despite taking on a number of other projects, the media still fixate on his role in the franchise.

“Whether A Private War, Anthropoid or Belfast, or whatever comes next, the line in the press is always, ‘It’s the best thing he’s done since Fifty Shades,’” he said. “As if I am still needing to prove myself.”

“I am still paying penance for that choice to get me back to where I was beforehand,” the actor continued. “Look, I get it, and to be honest with you, it spurs me on. It lights a fire in me. If that means people saying, ‘Oh, actually he’s not that bad,’ well, so be it.”

Jamie also addressed the possibility of playing James Bond. Check it out…
