He is excellent in it yes.
Not sure he is good looking enough.
Sam Clafin is another good choice and id be happy if he gets it but here is a small problem : the release of Me before you seems like it could be the ultimate chick flick and be as successful as the fault in our stars or the notebook that means huge mainstream fir Sam and could leave him outside of the contenders.
That film( Me before you) could be for him what the Notebook was for Ryan Gosling
I think he compares reasonably well to that image of Bond that Fleming had commissioned. Not saying it's a perfect match, but I think he compares fairly well to it. I'll admit that he does lack a bit (not saying he completely lacks it) in terms of ruggedness when compared to Connery and Craig, but the Bond franchise usually changes styles with each new actor, so we're due a change of course in terms of the style and tone of the franchise anyway.
And thanks @dominicgreene for posting those. I missed it when you originally posted it. That second one was the one I was talking about.
Not that I'm advocating for him but he's conventionally good looking enough. Bond's sex and overall appeal isn't dependent on what his face looks like.
He is making those comments days after the media and internet have anointed Piddleston as the next Bond...
Not just Bond's, that's how it normally is. Not that people will ever agree, anyway, about an individual's appeal, or their looks, either.
No, you are not. I haven't even presumed many people seriously think EON ever considered him at all.
"Last week, Daniel Craig declared that he will never do another Bond film"
Er...did he now? Who did he declare that to?

LOL I like Turner but the long hair and stubbly look isn't good for Bond

"Тhe long hair and stubbly" have one great property: they can be removed))) ;)
There you go. ;)
Perfect. :D
Perfect. :D
I often say how much I want a very traditionally good looking actor like Pierce but when i think of my top 3 of the Bond actors only Pierce is that obviously good looking. He is my number but still 1 out of 3.
My other two favorites( Craig and Connery) are not so great looking but got me with their personality and that X factor which made them attractive to me.
If my top 3 was Pierce Brosnan, Timothy Dalton and George Lazenby then id have a point for claiming an obvious good looks actor but its not my case.
It could make for cringe-making television but so what? ;) That's the point of reality tv!
Now there's a format that would work! Contestants should name an actor suitable for Bond that none of the other contestants has thought off. That one will then be cast! (love pointless!)
