Then I hope you have informed the Turner fans here, they are equally sure. ;)
Lol. Seriously, I have a feeling it's going to be him. I felt it was Craig way before the rumours emerged too. He's young, cool, edgy, a fantastic actor and has a relatively small profile at present. He's someone no one ever really mentions. It won't be Cavill or Turner. BB will make another unexpected, leftfield choice. Mark my words, Bond number 007 is Jack Lowden. Get yourselves down to your local bookmakers.
I always felt Fassbender would have been perfect for a period piece Bond, but I agree his window is passing by.
Disclaimer: this is a joke
However I think the most exciting thing is the not knowing and having the rug pulled when the casting happens. The chances of our favourite being picked is slim and the chance of us all being happy is VERY slim. I remember watching Layer Cake back in 2004ish. Really enjoyed it and thought DC was great, however only as part of an otherwise great cast. Not for one second did I think of him as Bond. (Back then I was one of the Clive Owen brigade!!!!)
However when BB cast Craig, I thought oh,ok? Then let it settle, watched Layer Cake again and thought yeah I can see this working. (The scene that stuck out for me was the one when he is walking around the bedroom with a gun in a 'Bond' pose)
So anyway, my point is fast forward to 2021/22 and the unknown, unpredictable and possible left field choice will be exciting again...
Micheal Fassbender.
I’d like to be surprised as well. I remember Layer Cake getting a lot of hype in 2004, but I honestly don’t remember hearing of Craig being a contender for Bond until the very day he was cast.
He was mentioned in the media some weeks prior, along with several others. He immediately became my favourite to take over.
I did too. I would love Fassbender to take over the role, but the age discussion comes into play, same with Bale.

Even if this were all true I think you need to say a lot more to convince me.
The guy is so 2D, cardboard is jealous of him.
