on Perlman admits \'The Capture\' torture scenes made him very uncomfortable.
The 69-year-old actor plays brutal CIA anti-terror agent Frank Napier in the BBC One conspiracy thriller, and he revealed some of his character\'s tactics were difficult to film.
Speaking to the Daily Mirror newspaper, he said: "That made me cringe. You call home and say, \'I\' about to shoot a scene and you\'re going to hate me\'... I was aware there were lines crossed."
However, Ron also insisted his character is actually one of the good guys despite his actions - which include sanctioning torture, silencing and witnesses and faking evidence - as he pointed out the "unimaginable" situations he faces.
He explained: "It\'s easy for us armchair philosophers to make judgments about people dealing with real life-and-death circumstances.
"The things they have to do to root out people who have nothing but destruction in their hearts are sometimes unimaginable.
"The intelligence services are up against a singlemindedness of evil and destruction. That require a response that\'s appropriate."
Meanwhile, the \'Hellboy\' star commented on his own career - which has included parts in the likes of \'Tangled\', \'Sons of Anarchy\' and \'Pacific Rim\' - as he revealed his one big ambition in acting is to land a role in a James Bond movie.
Admitting he doesn\'t mind if he just makes a cameo appearance, he added: "Who wouldn\'t want to say, \'I was in a Bond movie?\' I don\'t care how big the role is."
\'The Capture\' finale airs tonight (08.10.19) at 9pm on BBC One.
