I think Callum Turner looks the part.

We all missed on having this guy though, he's a perfect Bond if he shed a little muscle mass. But I think he's too old.

The sad thing is we didn't get The Man From U.N.C.L.E. sequel. I'm a Bond fan but it was better than %75 of all the Bond films. Such a great spy movie, just nobody went and saw it.

Yep, Cavill would've been awesome.

Henry Cavill or Theo James seem like the obvious slam dunk choices to me. These other guys don't have the looks or the charisma for the part. Can't have the second without the first to play Bond.

I'm gonna fight you on this over Collum Turner and Jack Lowden.

I know a lot of women who like Collum Turner (he's also a former model). He's not my cup of tea but there's a reason he landed Dua Lipa. And I think he has the look for it.





He has that traditional Bond look.

And while he's such a dork on Slow Horses, Jack Lowden IS attractive. You're likely about to see a big wave of that when Pride and Prejudice drops on Netflix in December and he's playing Mr. Darcy.





I can't unsee Josh O'Connor as a young King Charles. He's not conventionally attractive but he's not ugly either. And he is a fantastic actor.

I was on the Cavill hype train for it but after seeing him in the Night Manager, I still think we missed on this guy.



I also get the feeling that Theo James doesn't WANT the part or he could absolutely land it. When he was in Sanditon several years ago (period piece) he left the show after one season because he didn't want to get boxed into one type of character. Now, I think you can do Bond and not get typecast for life (just look at Daniel Craig post-Bond).

Of those three: Lowden.


But my man Henry Cavill needs to be in the mix. His autistic arse would be a great James Bond.
