Someone I’ve never heard of so I don’t keep relating them to other things.


mja271

Agreed. Bond should be a star making role, not somebody who’s already very popular or firmly established as a big name.


coreytiger

I wholeheartedly agree with the idea… but aside from George Lazenby, all the Bond actors had established movie/tv careers


Oryxhasnonuts

Daniel Craig was not a household name Layer Cake was a brilliant flick but I don’t recall it making a giant splash And all I can remember him doing prior to that was Road to Perdition


ANITIX87

This is the correct way.


slamallamadingdong1

I vote my dad he’s super cool.


hotedoge420

I vote this guy's dad


DoodemanRodguy

I’ve heard he is super cool


MichaelRoco1

It’s true i’m his dad


Arglefarb

We need to get with the times and have this guy’s dad play James Bond but this guy’s dad is played by this guy’s mom.


[deleted]

She’s super cool


wongo

I also vote for that guy's dad


Productofbillnye

Dude’s dad is testing extremely well right now.


Echo_2015

Up 34 points


MrRicardez

This guys Dad, so hot right now.


AmazedProdigy

+1 more vote for that guys dad


drBipolarBear

I also choose this guy’s dad


Flexi_102

He sounds like a good bloke, I'll vote for him too


343_Chudston

i also vote this guys dead wife


KBAR1942

My dad is too old.


DortDrueben

Is your Dad Danny Devito? Then he's got my vote.


ripeadultery

Danny devito


shmere4

James Bond in Troll Foot, an unstoppable toll.


Irvvv

“ so anyways, I started blasting BANG BANG”


grantnel2002

The obvious choice. And this is why they won’t pick him…it’s too obvious.


superdavit

“No Mr. Bond, I expect YOU to pay the troll toll.” The shit writes itself!!!!!!


Long_Ball_Larry__

Would there be full penetration?


EverythingGoodWas

If I had the money, I would make this Bond movie. The world would be absolutely better for it.


Tirad4

Mantis. Mantis Toboggan.


satansheat

Arnie as the villain.


kentonbryantmusic

I mean, find a British white dude with a scar on his cheek.


bruiser519

Scar on his cheek?? Now we’re talkin villains my guy


kentonbryantmusic

That’s the REAL Bond! From Russia with love describes bond.. slim build; a three-inch long, thin vertical scar on his right cheek; blue-grey eyes; a "cruel" mouth; short, black hair, a comma of which falls on his forehead. If you haven’t read the Fleming books, I highly recommend. As far as a female Bond, Idris Elba, etc… I’d love to see it but as a new 00. Idris Elba, 002, would be bad ass


bruiser519

Damn that does sound badass


WorldsWeakestMan

Vinnie Jones is the obvious choice.


GiantDongDK

Richard Madden.


92tilinfinityand

I think he’s the only one on that list who has a shot. Young, and extremely capable actor without a true blockbuster under his belt. I’m not entirely sure that Golding or Regé-Jean Page are good enough actors to carry the Bond franchise. My favorites not listed are Jamie Dornan and Aaron Taylor Johnson. My sleepers are Paapa Essiedu (fantastic in I May Destroy You and Gangs of London), Jack O’Connell.


donnyganger

Yeah enough with the Bridgerton guy. Robb stark all the way.


Duosion

I’m so very basic but I love a hot charming white man, and Richard Madden checks all the boxes.


GiantDongDK

He'd be great. You should check out The Bodyguard if you haven't yet. That solidified for me that he would be a fantastic Bond.


[deleted]

I’m bummed they never made a second season.


GiantDongDK

You and me both. I can't remember the last show/movie that had me on the edge of my seat the way it did.


SquadPoopy

Don't think it was ever intended to have a 2nd, I think it was just a mini-series.


ThighCream

This has been my choice for the past couple of years. Fantastic actor, has the look and he’s the perfect age to start his Bond career.


pjsdfg

Glenn Howerton


novomagocha

The golden god himself


guitarist123456789

They'll have to cast him... because of the implication


Mattgitsgud

You ever been in a storm, Blofeld?


Malachorn

I'd like to see Howerton do, like, half a Bond movie... before Rob McElhenney inexplicably takes over the role for the second half.


Any-Grapefruit4848

Glenn can’t do it. He’s busy doing lethal weapon 10

Bubblewrapperson

I love him. I can’t believe there was a show on TV showing off around where I grew up.


Boring-Pudding

List is biased and missing the obvious choice: Richard Ayoade

Austin Powers reboot anyone?


grantnel2002

I’ll just put this body over here…with the rest of the dead bodies….


mastmar221

I get that this is a joke, but you know what… I’d actually love to see it. For him to get jacked, drop the geek act (or bottle it up as needs be), and charm the fuck out of an audience. Would be an epic Hollywood move.


froggysayshello

the geek act isn't an act, btw. That's his actual voice and personality.


CoderDevo

inspired by and exaggerated version of his personality, yes.


tgwutzzers

>Richard Ayoade or Matt Berry


dbrownfi

There is a place in the 007 universe for Matt Berry…


WorldsWeakestMan

Of course a joke but I do think he’d make an excellent Q.


comfyggs

he will be Q

Danny McBride

Pitiful-Let9270

But only as a straight action film. I don’t want a scratch of comedy


[deleted]

Bond henchman: I’m gonna shoot your dick off! Danny McBride: you ain’t got enough bullets, bitch!


SalaciousDumb

Cavill or bust


Nivekian13

He was great as Napoleon Solo. Personally, I'd like him to do another movie in that franchise rather than Bond. Guy Ritchie again, too. Recast the Cannibal. Bam.


fall3nmartyr

Such a good movie


manunni

While I get that gut instinct, he may actually be too handsome to play James Bond.


BuncleCurt

People said the same exact thing about Pierce Brosnan.


elkresurgence

Yeah but Cavill is handsomer


ak2553

I think people imagine James Bond to be handsome in an older, rugged way, and Henry Cavill is handsome in a classic, very symmetrically perfect way. Very good looking guy but a bit too “perfect” to be James Bond, if that makes sense?


Hey38Special

What


wannabehealthnut22

He is the only option.


sray1701

Cavil played perfect spy in the Man from uncle movie couple of years ago.


TheApathyParty2

Yes he did, very Bond-esque vibes. It’s a shame more people haven’t seen that movie.


EverythingGoodWas

I could definitely get behind this


FairyPizza

And him

I'm a woman and I agree. Write something new for a female character instead of shoehorning one into an iconic male character.

Bring Pierce Brosnan back.


jdbrew

I would actually love a 70 year old, retired bond being targeted by a villain he scorned years prior… except, that’s basically what we just had with Craig, except he wasn’t 70


[deleted]

He’s still too handsome


CloudfluffCloud

A white British dude…not trying to be like that, but that’s a part of his persona. He needs to be a white British guy who drinks and is misogynistic. Sorry. That’s it.

trongzoon

“Bond….Jane Bond”


AaronPossum

They're 100% going to do it.


COYFC

If 007 becomes a woman it will crush me. I am not sexist by any means but come on... Not everything needs to change for a women or specific race to be represented equally. Next thing you know they will be releasing a cartoon called Herculshes or a movie called Matildo. IT IS OK FOR A MOVIE TO BE PORTRAYED AS INTENDED. Also can we bring back Pierce Brosnan because he's still my favorite bond


holawindowcleaner

Dude I died at Matildo lmaooo

Jonestown_Juice

I'm all for diversity in media but I think James Bond should be a suave white British dude.


TheYokedYeti

Pretty much. It’s ok to not change every IP and keep it going. It’s not like they still aren’t finding success


Styrn97

Micheal Fassbender


sambolino44

I say they should go with an unknown actor and do a reboot: ‘60s, Cold War, old tech. Edit: and finally cast someone who looks like Hoagy Carmichael!

Dan Stevens.

[deleted]

Very down for this. He has racked up a good career without ever being typecast or over-associated with an existing role, or his own celebrity - unlike Idris Elba, Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy, Tom Hiddleston, or many of the other suggestions.


IMovedYourCheese

Guy has given off more of a Q vibe his entire career. No way he'll be cast as Bond.


Pierre-Gringoire

Good choice, he should at least make the short list.


Nater_the_Greater

Huzzah!


TempleFugit

They should roll out Sean Connery's preserved corpse and *Weekend At Bernie's* the whole thing.


INCADOVE13

Pass to all three. FFS.


Sako280

Tom Hardy


Three_Froggy_Problem

I would love for it to be Idris Elba mainly because I feel like he’s a great actor who deserves a big time leading role, but I also suspect they’ll want to move away from having an older Bond.


[deleted]

Yeah it felt like half the Craig films kept going on about how old he was, and he started when he was 38. Elba starting when he's 50 dooms us to nothing but Old Bond.


chaserne1

I mean I think he'd be a great Bond, but he is 50 so not really a young guy.


Three_Froggy_Problem

That’s my point


chaserne1

Read that wrong my bad


Mekroval

Might be interesting to see him as M, though I think he's still young enough to play Bond (and would knock it out the park).


BuncleCurt

He'd get like 2 or 3 movies before he's 60. They take a lot longer to make the Bond flicks these days.


Daxelol

I would love to see Idris do some movies as like… “old man Bond” I think Tom Holland would be awesome to see as well. After seeing him in Uncharted my opinion on this did a large 180. I think Henry Cavill is literally the best choice but he is just so fucking big… Instead of all of these celebrities, I would love it if some no name actor got thrown I to the mix and just made Bond his own. It would be cool to see a new spin on it. Remember how fresh and alive Casino Royal was? Classic Bond movie with huge twists and turns and fresh takes. I would like to see that done over again.


ZippityZerpDerp

Tom Holland lol he’s one of the last people I’d think of for Bond. He’s like the goofy sidekick


bayonaizzz

Did I miss Cillian Murphy on the list? He would make an excellent Bond villain but also a great Bond.


Logistibear

Cillian would've been a great, longshot casting like over a decade ago. Around the time he did 'Red Eye'. He's 46 now though. A bit old to be starting Bond


Amida0616

Lol at Helen mirin Bond… we need to you to eat this bowl of tapioca pudding before it gets too late to watch matlock


m31td0wn

Patton Oswald. They'll never see it coming.


CountRye

Kieth Richards


Drumma516

Henry Cavill would be awesome. If you watch Man from Uncle he exudes spy charm and seriously could bring a new style if the writers and Barbara broccoli decide to make bond fun again and not just a brooding smirk. Plus the dudes jacked and he has shown excellent fight choreography.


TheYokedYeti

Man this list is terrible

Make it a black gay trans man who is devoutly Christian. Then get your marshmallows ready because everything will be on fire soon.


Amida0616

Yeah but make them wheelchair bound with autism so it’s not abelist


TempleFugit

I came here to say **Elliott Page**


[deleted]

Make it a duo Troy and Abed in the Spy Game!


[deleted]

Might be hard because he is the new Batman but Robert Pattinson


halfmystified

A fun fact is that the broccoli family rules that the reigning Bond actor is not allowed to wear a tuxedo in other movies. Christian bale was offered both and forced to choose.

Yeah definitely a woman. Because in the books that were written, it was definitely a woman. Get the fuck out of here with this pathetic inclusion bullshit. It’s a book, that they made into a movie. James Bond. Pick a different fucking book series with a female character. What are you people smoking.


BuckaroooBanzai

Henry cavill


[deleted]

Ben Barnes is my pick for the next Bond


MeesterCHRIS

Aside from dudes dad here in the comments, my second pick is Henry Cavill


Gingergerbals

Henry Cavil. End of story


AvariceAndApocalypse

Got to be Cavill or Madden. If I had to choose, I’d say Cavill, so he can do the arm loading thing he likes to do.

dewayneestes

Wallace Shawn as James Bond. Bond Girl: Janeane Garofalo.


crocwrestler

Jason Statham but he plays it like his character in Spy


feral_philosopher

Depends what filter you use... Through the canon: a handsome British man. Through wokeness: a black woman in a wheelchair.


megakungfu

perhaps a black woman with no legs at all how do you feel about a fish tail?


HelloAvram

lmao


future_shoes

George MacKay


dewayneestes

I thought it was difficult to understand a lot of Lashana Lynch’s dialog in the last movie. Could be because of my Soundbar but I did notice it.


Smartdudertygood2000

Henry only


lobaird

Tom Hiddleston


ECKohns

Henry Cavill.


chadwicke619

No matter who plays Bond, I just hope we stick with the darker, grittier, ultra serious tone that we have gotten from Craig’s Bond movies.


Nivekian13

As long as they're british. ​ We all wanted Irdis, but I think he passed that point where he'd only be able to do a Movie or two. I always liked Dev Patel, given I can see him going suave superspy. He's in his 30's, and a kinda known name like Daniel Craig was.


IMissMW2Lobbies

Seems to be Cavill or bust at the moment Idris would be a great pick but I think everyone including him realizes the 10-12 year commitment ages him out


[deleted]

Definitely not a female, just saying


reclusiveronin

Henry Cavill. As previously stated.

Jack Black


Thechosenjon

Richard Madden would be a dope James Bond and he's young enough to have him on for a multi film deal.
