Cast a villain from the M:I series in a Bond film? That's literally already happened with Lea Seydoux.
True, but I think Seydoux’ part on M:I was smaller than Cavill’s. I also don’t really get the obsession with him… seems like some people just want a good Bond poster rather than a good Bond film.
I still would like it just for the British tabloids going mental when all of them being at the set is leaked.

Are you actually James Bond?! :)
No he’s Bond….DewiWynBond.
Not sure how that would look on the movie poster.
No, bit of a mouthful. We'll just call him Jim for short.

Monsieur Bond?
Getting there! Some guy in a pub started this decades ago, saying I look like JB. Then there was a debate weather I looked like him or Nigel Bond.
Based on you looking like James Bond, it must be regarding one of the actors.
So who do you resemble @DewiWynBond ?
I'm not sure, a bit of everyone. Maybe it's my presence. At the time I was a barman, and I bought a white polo shirt, similar to Craig in CR.
😂 I translated it into /David/Paris/
Hahaha. Love it. Most likely the Cavill thing is rubbish, but part of me wants to see a villain with such a name.
I mean, it's no worse than Lucifer Safin I'd argue.
In this weeks episode of The Hot Mic, Jeff Sneider says Aaron Taylor-Johnson's not a lock for Bond.
I can’t pull it up, what does he say?
I appreciate the work that has gone into it, but the use of the guitar part of the Bond theme is very jarring and imo doesn't work. I can see how it should and could work, but for me it just doesn't fit. Sorry.
That's not harsh at all. Yeah I'm not a producer, I just mashed three snippets together as an excuse to include my voice, which I'm not happy with yet. What else should I do?
Who is Sneider? Is he a reliable source?
I'd say it's possible he has decent sources but this sounds a lot like speculation on the broader rumor to me, and not anything new or concrete to change the current narrative that, maybe ATJ is Bond maybe not. But it seems unlikely there'd be this much smoke with no fire, so I bet the producers have at least in fact talked to ATJ.
But again, the Bond world moves with a script and director in place. If they are already talking to actors, to me, that leads credence to having more in place than they're letting on. We can keep going... if things are indeed moving this fast, then it's likely a P&W spec script and they're very likely talking to or just waiting on a director. What's interesting is how little rumor we're getting about directors, which makes me hesitate; that could mean they have their person, someone like Nolan maybe, which is the only rumor out there so far.
However, keep in mind, I'd say there are still strong odds we could still be at zero, and nothing has happened. It's possible the ATJ stuff is coming from his team, to try to get in there, and it's Eon who are reacting because they have to, and aren't ready to talk to actors yet.
He's a well known film reporter / scooper who's worked for Variety, The Wrap, Mashable, The Tracking Board, Collider, LA Mag, The Ankler, Below the Line and Above the Line.
Jordo's suggestion of misdirection could be plausible, though - given the connections between ATJ's wife and EON, is there at least a chance that he's in on it as a sanctioned decoy to draw scrutiny away from the real process of finding the new Bond?
The shell company would be the first thing to look at. That means they’re starting to pay ppl to begin development of B26.
And most likely the first to be paid are the writers.
Once they have a working script that has a clear tone and direction, official auditions will happen- likely with a director attached.
Once an actor is chosen, they’ll polish the script to tighten it around the new actor’s strengths.
I think EoN has so much on their plate that they don’t have the energy nor inclination to mislead the public, or misdirect. They’re secretive, for sure, but more importantly, there is a process and they are going to follow their process. No one will throw them off of their path.
And all indications are that they have had informal chats with actors. As in plural. There is no way, in contemporary filmmaking, that EoN would meet with one actor and anoint him. The auditions will ultimately decide who is the best man.
Hear, hear. Amen and hallelujer, for it's the truth. Albeit a sad truth. They should have been further on the process tbf. But yeah, old news. Cheers Peter.
