Did you see him in “The Man From UNCLE”?
Yeah I liked him in that, but it’s a more playful tone than what I think we’d get from a Villeneuve Bond movie. I’d much prefer Fassbender’s persona in that role. Robert Pattinson isn’t a terrible shout either, but I don’t think he’s as charismatic as fassbender or Cavill tbh.
Fassbender would far and away be my choice, but wouldn’t be upset by the other two.

He could do it, he’d just need to not be at his full jacked body type to pull it off.
This is my main reason for not seeing him in the role tbh. Do a massive year long cutting cycle and I might start to see it lol.

I can see and respect that.
I'm a pretty big Cavill fan and think he's gotten the short end of the stick a number of times (Superman, Witcher, etc) so I'm not completely objective but I certainly think either would be great picks.

I like Cavill or Fassbender. If they want to reboot with a very young Bond (starting out) then I like Theo James (recently in The Gentlemen).

James, ATJ, or Jack O’Connell

Put me down for Cavill as well (Man from U.N.C.L.E. is ridiculously underrated)
Theo James as my alternate.

There were some really good Peaky Blinders episodes the first year. Not sure that is the tone for Bond though. I'm thinking Bullett Train, The Nice Guys, Dungeons and Dragons type of action with some fun and comedy allowed. This writer could certainly work if he doesn't try to make it too dark.

Same stupid bullshite that people said about him with Batman.
Pattinson is one of the better actors of his generation and would be phenomenal as Bond.
Tenet gives a glimpse of what he could do with the role
