Physicist Stephen Hawking may be wheelchair-bound, but that doesn't stop him from wanting to do more in life! This time, the award-winning physicist and academician revealed he wanted to play a villain in a James Bond movie.

Hawking, who authored the best-selling A Brief History of Time, said in an interview with Wired magazine that his being wheelchair-bound and his distinctive computerized voice would make him the perfect antagonist for an 007 film.

"My idea role would be a baddie in a James Bond film. I think the wheelchair and the computer voice would fit the part," he said.

Anyway, Hawking is not new on the big screen. The Simpsons has already immortalized him, while played a cameo performance on Star Trek, where he was featured enjoying poker together with Data, Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein. The physicist also agreed to lend his presence in the recent Monty Python shows.

But the most defining role Hawking could ever play is Hawking himself. His life is now the center of the motion picture The Theory of Everything.

Based on the memoir of Hawking's former wife, Jane, Travelling to Infinity: My Life with Stephen, the movie details his early years, particularly the inception of his motor neurone disease and his successes with physics.

He was diagnosed with the disease at 21, while attending Cambridge University.

Eddie Redmayne portrays him onscreen.

72-year-old Hawking said that to communicate with the world is what he loves most.

"I was able to speak with a speech synthesizer, though it gave me an American accent. I have kept that voice, because it's now my trademark," he said.

He also explained that he did not lost his voice in the nick of time, rather, it has "slurred," "so only those close to me could understand, but with the computer voice, I found I could give popular lectures" he explained.

"I enjoy communicating science. It is important that the public understands basic science, if they are not to leave vital decisions to others," he said.
