Who should be the next James Bond?

[IMCC965]

Ian Fleming died in 1964. Technically, that's when Bond died. These new people can do to the character whatever the hell they want. If you were going to be a stickler to the rules you should have been complaining that Bond wasn't 89 years old in these last few.

Listen...you can't apply that logic to the Bond series. He became a world-wide bad-ass sensation for years. If we want to get technical about movie shit, then we need to start complaining about all the superheroes being different each movie. None of them were killed, unless they had some sort of super power bring them back to life, and the movie franchise's kept on going.

Are there any black women for choices?

James Bond, the character, is a white, British, male. Again, they killed him off, so how can they possibly come out with another James Bond movie? They killed the franchise in the last movie, and YES, I was pissed.

Daniel Day Lewis or Bronson Pinchot

I don’t know who any of those people are except Idris Elba

Haha, you are old and out of touch. Then went and checked the list. Crap, Im old too.

Daniel Day Lewis or Bronson Pinchot

Don’t be ridiculous!

WTF?? They KILLED Bond in the last movie. So, no one. Second, and this is going to piss people off, but Bond is a white guy. That's who the character is.

We didn’t actually SEE Bond die so…..

The whole damn island blew up. Of course he's dead. He said goodbye to his daughter and wife. DEAD.

Thats not the actual James Bond then. Tracey was he only wife and she already died in On Her Majesty's Secret Service. So whatever you thought you were watching..... it sits on a throne of lies.

But, I confess, I have not watched the last 2 movies,

But there was a secret elevator shaft that led to a bomb proof bunker. He made it down there after the camera cut away.

Impossible. I know he's Bond and all, however, as the camera panned away from the island, it clearly showed him standing out in the open and watching the missile coming straight at him. He didn't have time to get down an elevator and save himself.

This is absolutely bizarre.

The character has been in movies for literally decades and is always roughly the same age and has been recast many times.

They’ll just start it up again. Why is this hard?

For the record Nicholas Hoult would be my choice but he’s never on these lists.

He was standing over the secret trap door leading to the elevator shaft. Bond always has time.

Ella Purnell, Can play Bonds daughter and follows in Dads footsteps, Let JB stay dead.

 

[Tiny Hands Trump]

Someone trans.

 

[DropitlikeitsHawk]

Always justified it that James Bond and 007 were both codes. James Bond is not a person.

 

[Tenacious E]

Should be some good choices out there. Here’s the CNN list. Naturally they’ve included two women. Because, whatever.

Hugh jackman or Paul mescal.
