This is unacceptable.
You're English has been good enough to post here. So you understand well enough.
If you continue to multi-post you action will be taken by the site moderators and or admin. I suggest you take note.
Thanks!
This is the How To? Guide and will answer most of what you need to know, including how to edit posts.
Henry Cavill could work too. He came very close to playing Bond in Casino Royals, but the producers thought he was too young.
Personally I think Craig's 5'11" (or 7 bricks, I dont now how the English measure height, is it like weight?) is about as short as I'm willing to go.
Jamie Dornan is the right age, I suppose, but something tells me that 50 Shades is going to be a critical disaster, and he and his career will be dragged down with it - the trailers look downright miserable. Something about his look also bugs me.
Someone had mentioned Jai Courtney some pages back. I really don't mean to be rude, but my God, I hope he never even steps foot within five miles of a Bond set. Same goes for Sam Worthington, perhaps even more so.
Robert Pattinson - Unless he is somehow magically able to shed that Twilight image and become a consistently talented actor, he's toast.
Michael Fassbender - A good actor and I think has a good look for Bond, but he might be a bit too old.
Benedict Cumberbatch - Great actor, not convinced on his look. Already the face of Sherlock (which he is marvelous on). Can't praise his ability as an actor enough, I just don't think he has the look.
Tom Hardy - great actor, no doubt. Too short I'm afraid. Might also be a little too old by the time Craig steps down, believe it or not. (Same age as Fassbender)
Damien Lewis - another good actor. Too old by the time Craig steps down (only 3 years younger than Craig) and not 'handsome' enough.
Rupert Friend - A name I have heard of, but am not familiar with any of his work. Right look and right age though.
Charlie Hunnam - Didn't know this guy was English. Would carry the "Craig blonde" look. I'm not terribly familiar with his work, though I hear he's very good on the TV show, Sons of Anarchy.
Henry Cavill - He'll have Superman for awhile, I'd say that rules him out. Unconvinced on his acting talent.
Tom Cullen - He looks older than he is which is a good thing - certainly has a great look for Bond. Would be the right age when Craig steps down. I'm not familiar with his acting work, though.
Aaron Taylor Johnson - VERY young and looks it, perhaps too young when Craig steps down. I'm not terribly convinced he's that good of an actor either. Dreadful in Godzilla (script did him no favors), and I'm very conflicted about Kick-Ass. But decent in Anna Karenina.
Nicholas Hoult - Like Johnson, I think too young for now. I think he's got the right look, perhaps a little effeminate but that might change as he gets older. A better actor than Johnson, IMO.
Sam Claflin - Looks very young, and something about his look is a little...goofy? I also think he's a little stiff in Hunger Games.
Jude Law, Hugh Jackman, Andrew Lincoln, Richard Armitage, Jon Hamm - Too old.
And then there's Idris Elba. He certainly is a talented actor and I honestly think he would make a good Bond, all the controversy aside. But I think he's going to be too old. Looks good for his age, though.
I hope I didn't offend anyone. Please feel free to tell me why I'm wrong!
My money is on him. I think he has all the right tools and will be the right age when Dan hangs up the holster.
He's also good in "A Walk Among the Tombstones", but totally different kind of performance then in "Guest".
Yes.
