Pascal offered some insight into why the search has been so deliberate. "We are being really, really methodical," she said. "Having worked with Barbara Broccoli at the studio, I mean, Daniel Craig is a hard act to follow. And it's got to be something really different that is stirring and exciting and different."


If it's these comments above, I don't think there's anything wrong with what she's saying. I think people will blow this out of proportion as usual

I'd support changing to Jane Bond if they cast Alexandra Daddario or Sydney Sweeney.

Either they are just saying that to generate interest, or they are going to make James bi-sexual.

Yeah, I know, that was just jokes. I heard it in Connery's voice but that didn't seem right. And they've already had a beta Bond with Daniel Craig.

I miss the days when "really different" meant blonde and no chest hair instead of black, gay, female or tranny.

The last movie had Bond dealing with baby momma drama. How much worse can it get?

Would be cool to see a young bond before coming 007. The end of movie 1 could be him becoming 007, then the subsequent movies are the start of his career

That would be a fresh take that could still be true to source material

For the sake of my entertainment from the meltdown on this board, I hope it’s either Laverne Cox, Lena Dunham, or John Boyega.

Seriously, I think Ana de Armas would be a great choice if they are going for a woman. As for male choices, Richard Madden (Robb Stark) or Daniel Kaluuya. I don’t think they should pick anyone over 40. We don’t need a 65 year old man playing bond in the 4th or 5th movie of his career.

Sue me.

And which one of these movies had a story or lead that was remotely close to James Bond? Teenage spidermen and a middle school teacher. "Really different" is not going to be good IMO, but they do need a younger audience if they want to keep the franchise going. Daniel Craig's Bond was no different from Jason Bourne or Ethan Hunt, just not as interesting or entertaining and he turned into a wimp in the end.
