Who will be the seventh Bond?
Posted by Lucien on Thursday, May 24, 2012
Skyfall is on its way in November, and Daniel Craig shows no signs of leaving the 007 franchise after just 3 films, but when he does, who do you think he should be replaced by? Here are the current favourites:
Michael Fassbender
The Irish star of 'Shame' and 'X-Men: First Class' certainly has the cool factor needed to play Bond, but he has never played an English character in a film before, and it is possible that he might not be able to pull it off.
Tom Hardy
The current fan favourite for the role, the 'Inception' and 'Dark Knight Rises' star would, in my opinion, be absolutely perfect for the role. He showed off his acting chops in 'Bronsan' and his comedy skills in the dreadful 'This Means War', but will it take him single-handidly lighting up the screen in TDKR before the studios are convinced of his ability?
Idris Elba
Many black actors' names have been tossed around for this role, including Will Smith, but 'The Wire' and 'Prometheus' star Elba is the current favourite. Plus, he's British.
Henry Cavill
The new Superman already has a lead role in a major franchise ahead of him, and being given the role of Bond might jumble up his Man of Steel 2 and 3 shooting schedules a bit, so most likely, no.
Sam Worthington
Worthington hasn't made many good films, although he has been the star of two or three of the biggest movies ever. He would be the first Australian 007, but not many fans are calling for him to receive the role.
Christian Bale
Batman as Bond? I don't think so.
John Hamm
Mad Men's Don Draper as Bond? I don't think so.
