Turner is better looking (no homo) and married to Dua Lipa so i guess he can get away with it

O'Connell would be a very interesting choice. I think he's a very good actor

Same pattern.. start an argument, be ignorant about the subject, get mad then blame me for the argument you started. Sad

No frick that, tell the guy who started it for once what you’re telling me. Don’t be a hypocrite just this once and I’ll stop

Not sure about Bond, but he would make an excellent Bond villain. His best roles have always been unhinged.

Pot calling the kettle here



There are literally dozens of articles right now you can find calling him "unknown" or some variation there of.

Good luck man. My last comment on this irrelevant topic. ANd Turner, Elordi, and Mescal are much more known to general audiences than Craig was at the time

Disappointed in no Theo James because I think he's perfect for it, but I understand they're wanting to go younger (James is 41).

Jack Lowden can absolutely pull it off after watching him in Slow Horses. He's genuinely attractive and has the acting chops. I do have to chuckle at the thought of River Cartwright as Bond though (and if you watch the show you know ).

He would have been great and probably my #1

Lowden is like a decade older than the rest of these guys. He would be my choice but that might be an issue for him

Jack Ruby posted an AI article that Amazon was hiring a black Bond before Villeneuve was even hired as director. So I don't think it will be any of these guys.

Except for the guy top left, they all look like children.

I did not realize that Turner is 36, making him similarly aged to Lowden (top left). He looks way younger

The rest are several years younger as far as I know

Mad, I'm usually on your side. But, you're wrong here. There weren't a half dozen people among casual movie fans who could pick Daniel Craig out of a lineup prior to his casting as 007.

Must be an anecdotal or generational thing because everyone I know knew him from those movies. In Road to Perdition we laughed at his American accent because we knew he wasn’t American from Tomb Raider.
