Who Should Be the Next Bond?

Started by G.P187 pages

I agree with Kes, but you don't have to do everything to get a British actor... (Ralph Fiennes playing John Steed is a bad memory for me 😖, for instance )

I like Ralph has Steed 🙁

I loved Patrick Macnee as Steed...that's why...

Yes ppl can do accents..but if we can have the real thing, why bother?

Because the person most suited for the role is not necessarily a native as has already been proven several times. it would be very bad if actors were always mostly obliged to play members of their own nationality as it is 'preferable'. Acting is beyond such things.

Agreed...but are you thinking of someone in particular, Ush ?

i think they should get someone new and unheard of... make a badass out of him, and create a star, revive the bond series which has been dying since tomorrow never dies.

True. But an accent isnt everything. The looks help. And I'm not talking goodlooking wise 😉

GP> i loved Patrick Macnee as Steed too. I loved the show.

well, I propose myself as the new bond then, I can do the accent 😉

Hugh Jackman Tipped for Bond Role

"Australian actor Hugh Jackman is the new favorite to take over from Pierce Brosnan as the next James Bond. Brosnan plans to hang up the superspy's famous tuxedo when filming concludes on the next installment in the series - and X-Men star Jackman is thought to be top of the list of potential replacements. A source at 007 movie makers Eon says, "A lost of possible successors has been drawn up, and Hugh is at the top. He's got everything the producers are looking for - dark good looks, an athletic build, a sense of humor and box-office clout. At 35, he is also the right age." British actors Clive Owen, Ioan Gruffudd, Jeremy Northam and Paul Bettany have all been put in the frame - but they have now reportedly been eliminated. The source explains, "Owen lacks the necessary lightness of touch to make Bond a box-office success." While Bettany is "strawberry blond - and there's never been a blond 007". Bond director Lewis Gilbert adds, "You can't have someone too young playing Bond because they would never be believable in the part. And the chances of getting a superstar like Russell Crowe are slim because he'll be too expensive, he'll have all sorts of projects lined up and is unlikely to want to commit to making a series of films. Hugh Jackman clearly fits the bill."

I like! 😄 I also like Jeremy Northam.

yea he will do well

i know who i would choose
