Default The next James Bond

Pierce Brosnan is to do one more. After that there is going to be a hunt for the new Bond. I've already said I'm too busy in other roles but there i still a role to fill.

My first choice - Clive Owen

My second choice - Ewan Mcgregor.


Any other thoughts???

Thought Brosnan was to do NO more, and they have already signed a new actor to do it.

Think it's meant to be the guy that played The Hulk (film version).
Dont know his name though.

I might be wrong though.

Dunno about the new actor but Brosnan is doing one more. Contracts signed about 6 months ago. 1 more is good for him, only 1 though as he's looking a bit "Roger Moore from: A View To A Kill"........E.g. Old.

I say give Timothy Dalton a second run. He was superb as Bond.


Failing that, Tony Adams.

Dalton was in actual fact the most Bond like of all the Bonds. Only ridiculed cos he did 2 films but there was a reason for that, it was not his fault at all.

Tony Adams eh, I was thinking Martin Keown.

Naah. I love Bond films - just need to go back the classic Bond instead of "Matrix style" camera effects in Die Another Day - tosh. Quite a good film ruined by camera panning, echoed visions on screen etc. I cringed.

Clive Owen - was he the guy in the Bmw movies? if so he's quite good

Clive Owen used to be Chancer and is in the current film "King Arthur".

Ewan Mcgregor, just needs to put on a little bit of weight and in the right clothes, hair style would be ideal.

Vinnie Jones. Err, I can't quite see that one.

Cool, glad he is doing one more!

Oooh, i like the sound of colin farrel doing it!

Have to say that i thought timothy dalton was the best one, then brosnan......

Was really disappointed with the last film though, hope the next one is back on form.

Colin Farrell?!!?!?!?! Only cos you fancy him!! Bond needs to be smooth, not a scruffy gyp.

Die Another Day was a good film ruined. I like all the Bonds on their own merit. I found Moore hysterical the things he came out with!!

I don't think any of them look like a bond to be honest.

yeah thats what i heard (see my earlier post)

Had quotes from brosnan that he was definitely not doing another one, even halle berry said she was sad to hear that he wasnt doing it again.

Tis all too confusing!!!!!!!

I thought Christian Bale had been lined up to replace Brosnan.

TBH - I don't think there's a obvious choice, not keen on Clive Owen.

I think he's called Eric Bana, same fella in Black Hawk Down.

Clive Owen gets my vote, if not Jason Stratham

Who is the next James Bond?


Everything that James Bond should be. Bond is really cheesy and really tired now. It was fine in the 70's but it has well and truly had its time now. The Bourne Identity is on the right lines for spy type movies these days.

He looks a bit of a "dork" imo.

I hate that word, you know what I mean though.
