Spacey as villain? Di Capprio?
Like Brigitte Nielsen in 'Beverly Hills Cop 2.'
John Krasinski.... As a bumbling CIA operative? A new Felix perhaps.
After the commercial and critical success of SF, I don't think you can rule any one out.
Obviously Spacey has less to lose in terms of his career. Infact, it could give him a boost.
His performance in House of Cards has proven once again what a great scheming villain he can deliver. Obvious Blofeld material.
On a side note, I have never been a fan of American Beauty, I thought it was maybe the most overrated movie to win an Oscar. For me, it was like watching a big budget, Hollywood version of a student movie. So not certain I would like to see Mendes and Spacey reunited. Granted, Mendes has matured, but still.
I have never liked Spacey and would be disappointed if he were in a Bond film. We shall see. I like Tilda Swinton and especially Helen Mirren. Aren't we due for some tidbit of real news? Locale? Deakins? Anything would be great!
Speculations and fan wishes but still SOMETHING half way new..
Unless you count the Timothy Olyphant would need to be High to play 007.
On second thought there is something here
"Japan is yet another country that has been rumoured for the next Bond film, and fans are keen for him to return here for the first time since 1967. But despite You Only Live Twice being almost solely centred in Japan, Tokyo itself wasn’t exploited well enough.

So Japan is rumored apparently
Surely it would be fantastic for Bond to spend a little time in Japan. It has been too long. And Japan has some gorgeous scenery and unique culture. Although just a rumor now, I wanted to say I hope this one is true. I cannot see Bond spending most of the film here, but in part? Oh, yes! That would be amazing - especially with Deakins' touch!
I completely agree with you! If I say Bond should go to Bhutan next (or anywhere else for that matter) my word is as good as his.
Or the Federated States of Micronesia, a guess as good as any!
Fair point. Another way of looking at is that a significant portion of SF's historic success stemmed from the Far East scenes, and that being the case, why not continue a good thing? For the record, I think your reasoning is better, but Eon could be looking at it in that other light.
Of course I reserve my judgment for when we know more about the movie and ultimately when it is released, but I do hope they go for my bet. Well, maybe not the European continent, but not the Far East. And there are oter reasons to back up my reasoning. Somehow I don't think Sam Mendes would like to repeat himself, for one. Then usually they change settings between two movies. QOS pictured a fair deal of Italy, like CR, but it was mainly because it was a direct follow up.
Especially since filming there is cheaper nowadays;-)
