Haha! Could have used "screen presence" instead, perhaps - or even "charisma"!

I imagine once the new series of Poldark gets underway soon Aidan Turner will be back on top.
Seriously, I wouldn't have a problem with any of these guys. Just let's get on with it.
Yes, 2022 seems likely at the moment, but there could always be an early departure by Craig. Its happened before.
True. Tim jumped ship only months before GE was originally scheduled to begin filming.
And Brosnan got the boot rather unexpectedly poor chap.
You'd have to go back to '85 for the last time it hasn't happened in fact.
True. Sad thing is the transition from Roger to Tim was the last time the actor changed within it's normal 2 year schedule. None of this 4 year nonsense to ponder 007's relevance in the world. None of this business of letting obstacles (such as Pierce's NBC contract situation) delay the release date of the next adventure. If that Remington Steele cancellation/renewal happened today when a main contender was being touted as Bond, we'd probably see articles stating the new film was going to be delayed another year.

This is a family friendly forum, racism will not be tolerated
If you go back through my history you will see that I am consistently respectful to others and even if I disagree with someone I don't become combative.
In my initial, unedited, post that has sparked this discussion, no mention of race is made; It's a story that simply shows another actor who's name is being attached to Bond. This was followed by a prejudiced, offensive reply that makes an accusation of racism. I find it curious that this member is not reminded not to pre-judge another's motivation for saying or posting something.
We have to laugh about these things, given how ridiculous the media can be. Oyleowo has as much chance of being Bond as I do. Zero, nil, nada, zip.
Mate, I know you're a respectful guy if you don't agree with others. I was just finding it a bit strange from my perspective; but like I said, I was more curious rather than trying to tell you what you can or can't post. I don't have that right. As for the poster you mentioned, I didn't even see what he wrote until you and @jamesbond alluded to it as I usially ignore the guy. It'll all good.
I remember in '95 while promoting GET SHORTY, John Travolta mentioned Bond was one of his favorite characters and he would have loved a shot at it. It was an offhand comment and nothing was made of it. No B.S. headlines reading "Travolta to be the next 007???" like there would most likely be today.
I've had too many conversations with friends/acquaintances asking me if it's true that Charlize Theron, Elba, etc are really going to replace Craig. As amusing as it is, I think this era of gullibility needs to end.
I remember that as well. If he said that today, and one googled Bond 25, it would probably be at the top in the news section.
along with comments about the groping accusations.
Right you are
