Speaking on the red carpet outside the British Film Institute on the South Bank, Sir Anthony, 74, said he was "obviously a little nervous" about the role, Sky News reported.
"I didn''t want to hear my voice back or see any of it, I wouldn''t see any playback because I didn''t want to shock myself," he said.
"I saw the film when it was finally cut together and I was very pleased with it.
"It was a tough role to play, just tricky because everyone knows him and he has been such a formidable presence in our living rooms through the years and probably the most famous director of all time - so it was daunting,” the Oscar award-winner added.u00a0
