Speaking of his role as the British writer, Dominic told the Daily Star: Stepping into the shoes of the man who not only created 007, but who fantasised about being him, has to be every actor’s dream.'
In the first still from the new series,Dominic Cooper and Lara Pulver show their on-screen chemistry as Ian and Ann as they fell in love during World War II.
Speaking of the love scenes, Lara - who famously went nude for her role as Irene Adler - Lara said: 'What was wonderful with Dominic is we trusted each other in the most vulnerable moments and most aggressive.'
'Ann challenged Ian more than any other woman could. They connected on a deep, tragic level. It’s about their animalistic behaviour. It’s not just about the sex though, it’s about the psychology, the game.'
Lara admitted that while some of the scenes may be considered explicit, she felt comfortable shooting them with Dominic.
The couple remained married until Ian's death of a heart attack in 1961, despite having numerous affairs with other people.
