Michael Fassbender has revealed that he wanted to do a big studio movie.
The actor spoke about his new role in 'X Men: First Class', in which he plays Erick Lensherr/Magento.
He told NPR: "I was looking to do a studio film. What really intrigued me about this particular one was that you're dealing with the villain, if you like, in the piece as somebody that's very ambivalent and there's a lot of complexity to him.
"And there is cause for his feelings and his actions. Whether or not you agree with them is another thing."
Fassbender also said that he often relies on biographies in order to understand his characters better.
"If there isn't a biography available that's my job to go away and write it. And what was great about [X-Men: First Class] is there was just such a wealth of information. I mean, I was really spoiled," he added.
The film also stars January Jones, James McAvoy, Nicholas Hoult and Jennifer Lawrence.
