It was so much to shoot and it’s even more fun to watch.”“Especially playing the so-called villain of the piece, I enjoy being a villain,” he added. “It’s so much fun. It’s just so much fun to be able to determine the fate of someone else’s world and life. It’s like I thought I liked you, but I don’t, you’re gone! And when I say gone, I mean gone.”It’s also fitting that Cranston gave Boy George’s lyrics in the new music video all of his electric energy, since the Culture Club singer recently gave Cranston all of his energy at a corporate gig.While performing “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?” at that recent event, he went into the crowd and sang directly in Cranston’s face.“We were literally nose-to-nose,” Boy George told PEOPLE, adding that Cranston was “very sweet” and made him “feel very comfortable.”Argylle, which also starsDua Lipa(who didn’t make an appearance in this music video), debuts in theaters on Feb. 2.
