The real James Bond, from which Fleming took the name, was, as you'll doubtless be aware, an American bird fancier, who had a book on his coffee lounge table
questions, questions..
For the last time, Bond should never be played by an american actor. Yes, we've had an Irish and Australian Bond, but the character should always be portrayed by a British actor at all times, but you simply can't see into the future to see what will occur. I hope it never sees the light of day, and don't think it will. But stranger things have occured
Tom Cruise has James Bond is my opinion. Not really saying he should be Bond. I'm saying maybe if an american actor is casted for the role.
But then none of those possibilities would actually feel like the character Fleming intended. There is something to be said for maintaining the British tradition.
British or British commonwealth, definitely no Americans.
Liam Neeson turning it down because he didn't want to appear in action movies has always struck me as strange though. He has done loads of action movies, hasn't he?
He is getting into the action films a lot lately, but before he was a very dramatic actor, from what I have seen of his work.
Absolutely, but it just shows you that when the work dries up some actors will do ANYTHING ;)
I think it is more about him trying new things and he also really needed to get his mind off of the death of his dear Natasha Richardson by doing acting job after acting job. He is quite strong to pull through his pain and still give us some great performances.
That was an awesome scene! I will have to add that to my watch list for sure.
Cusack has another fight in the fiilm, but that one is the better of the two.
I watched some of it. Bruce Willis had the most ridiculous disguises.
He reminds me of Brosnan there.
I say Amen to that!
Robert Dowey Jr is a slick actor, but after defining roles like Iron Man and Sherlock Holmes, he seems more of a pioneer for new to cinema character outings or in the case of breathing life back into the Sherlock role, with a very personal touch; to take a well established role like 007 he may feel the comparisons to all those present or who have gone before may shadow his unique style of performance. Saying that though, he could have been an interesting choice.
Oh wait. Superman is Kryptonian, not American....
*nevermind*
Still, he could have played Bond as american agent. Pity he only acted in just a few bondish films.
