If they are starting with concept/script before actor it really is a toss up. They must have been considering actors for quite some time now even if they are far from a decision.
If bond can be blond, bond can be ginger.
Maybe, but the approach they'll want to take with the next tenure will play heavily (I think) in the casting decision. And according to what Broccoli said, I doubt they'll go for an older actor for a short tenure deal or a one off, as some people have been suggesting here. I think the next Bond will be relatively young, in his 30s when cast.
Thanks to the grading, Bond was approaching ginger in Matera!
What do we think of Daryl McCormack who plays Isiah in the last season of Peaky Blinders?
Most of the names mentioned in the media are about as Bond like as Bugs Bunny.
We don’t think of him as Bond. 😉
he looks like a young Craig... and I have no idea who he is I think we may have found a winner ;)
I'm sure you've probably seen in Star Wars at least.
what star wars is he in?
He's in the sequels as General Hux
Don't feel poorly. I am quite convinced that a vast majority of suggestions on here are made in jest. They MUST be...Daryl McCormack ? See what I mean ? Am I being mean ? Perhaps, but isn't it also mean to propose someone inappropriate for it ? What if they saw such a suggestion, and started to feel enthusiasm for it ? Not nice.
Social media and the general public always have a rather ludicrous vision of who should or could be a Bond actor: Hugh Grant, Robbie Williams, Will Smith, George Clooney.
So who is your choice?
not being mean just curious
Did you suggest him because of that scene with him and Ada in last night’s episode? I was getting a real Bond vibe from him in that myself. He’s definitely got presence and charm. Could be one to watch.
Honestly you’re not missing that much. It’s still really slick and stylish and the actors are great as ever, but the last few seasons have been quite patchy plot wise imo. It’s still good, but I think the first two seasons are Peaky’s peak.
You will have seen the character he plays actually, but played by a different actor. Really small role, one of the junior Peaky Blinders. But they seem to be giving him a bit more to do now they’ve recast him with Mckormack, and I think there is something about him. Just googled him and he’s got a lead role in a film with Emma Thompson coming out that’s had some good reviews too, so it does seem like he could be going places.
Don't worry - there's no one of that calibre among British actors in the right age group. The closest to Craig in terms of looks, gravitas, ability and presence is Kevin McKidd from Rome, but he's already the age Dan was in SP. So it won't be him. He'd be seen as a substitute Craig, anyway, and I suspect EON are going to want to distinguish the new guy with some clear blue water, to avoid comparisons with DC. They could well go a very different route this time around.
