88Comrade2000 Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 For those Bond fans out there; actor Pierce Brosnan said in an interview to Entertainment Weekly Online that he is done with the Bond movies. His contract is up, the he does have an option for 5th movie. Guess, he's not using that option. So if Bronson is done; who would be a good choice to replace him?

88Comrade2000 Posted July 28, 2004 Author Share Posted July 28, 2004 Hugh Grant would be interesting. Hugh Jackman intrigues me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad4comp Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 you mean Pierce Brosnan ? I'm guessing Jude Law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 979guy Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Hugh Grant seems a little too soft, and Jude Law with too little Bond-like charm. Jackman, on the other hand, just might do it. I can just see the next set of Bond flick titles... 007 in Never Say Check Mate or The Spy Who Came In From Down Under Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just a ploy to get more money, he will do the last one To bad Matt Damon is Jason Bourne, he might have been a good Bond. What good british actors are out there?

Mr. S Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Hugh Jackman as James Bond, thatd be quite interesting, wonder if hes too rough though. I can imagine it now, hes in a fight with someone and then his wolverine claws suddenly pop out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riggo-toni Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Ralph Fiennes (might be difficult to convince him, since he was offered it once before and turned it down). I know he's Irish, but Brosnan was the first Bond who was really English (instead of Scottish). Gee, maybe they could bring back George Lazenby.... not!

TheDane Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Seriously though. I'm with jbooma, I think this is a contract ploy. If he gets replaced, I'm going with Ewan McGregor or Hugh Jackman. Clive Owen, another rumored replacement, is a thought but a little too dark of an actor.

jenmdixon Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Originally posted by jbooma To bad Matt Damon is Jason Bourne, he might have been a good Bond. No way. He's not British (or Scottish or Irish or Australian). So it wouldn't work, IMHO. Why not James Purefoy? He was in A Knights Tale with Heath Ledger...

I was dicussing this at work and that is the first person a co-worker suggested. I can't see him as JB after playing Batman though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted July 28, 2004 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Bale is already Batman I think. I think they should go to England and have an open casting call.......bad teeth need not apply. Seriously, this is a Superman situation in my head. You want an unknown guy who hasn't played a lot of other rolls. You want him to be the face of that character. I think I found the guy.

I can't see him as JB after playing Batman though. But can you picture him as Batman? I'm really looking forward to that. Bale is an incredible actor, always able to lose himself in his character. That's probably why you would have a hard time seeing him as Bond after seeing him in AP, because he was so convincing in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connery = Scottish Moor = English Lazenby = Australian Dalton = Welsh Brosnan = IRISH James Bond in the books is Scottish as was Ian Flemming who wrote them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
