Malek, who is nominated for best actor in a television series, drama for his role on "Mr. Robot," gushed about how much he loves the Bond films and how special it was to see the action up close.

Fans got a look at Malek's new Bond villain, Safin, in a trailer released in December. He wears a white mask over his scarred face and implies that he and Bond are two sides of the same coin.

"James Bond. License to kill. History of violence. I could be speaking to my own reflection," Safin says in the trailer for the film. "Only your skills die with your body. Mine will survive long after I'm gone."

"He's quite unique," Malek said of his character. "He's very complex. (Craig) calls him misunderstood."
