Eva Green feels like a 'porn actress'

Los Angeles - Eva Green sometimes feels like a "porn actress".

The 30-year-old former Bond girl is not afraid to bare all in her movies and admits she can't understand why sex scenes in films attract so much attention.

She said: "When I did The Dreamers I was not aware when I was filming it that all the questions from journalists afterwards would only be about the nudity.

Murderous lesbian

"I was asked all these questions about the sex scenes. I don't know why people make such a fuss. Sometimes I feel like I'm a porn actress."

Eva - whose roles have included a witch queen in The Golden Compass, a murderous lesbian teacher in Cracks and a schizophrenic in Franklyn - also admitted she loves playing "evil" characters who have secrets.

She said: "I'm drawn to those who are evil but damaged. It's fun to play evil.

"I like characters that have secrets. It's nice not to know it all. Complex is interesting."

However, the French star admits she would love to do something more light-hearted.

She said: "I'd like to play a silly role, like comedy, like something in Catherine Tate's show."
