Los Angeles, Oscar winner Alfonso Cuaron says he was once offered to direct a James Bond film, but he decided to turn it down as he was "troubled about the idea of doing it". Alfonso Cuaron says he almost directed a James Bond film While Cuaron didn't reveal which Bond film he was supposed to direct, he said he eventually passed over the project after a dinner with fellow filmmaker Joel Coen. Cuaron, known for hits such as "Y Tu Mama Tambien", "Gravity", "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban", and "Roma", recalled taking Coen's advice on the Bond film. The filmmaker also spoke about directing "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban", when he had not even read the books penned by JK Rowling on which the popular fantasy film franchise was based.
