    I think, with the Amazon acquisition of the creative rights, Jacob Elordi's chances just went way up. They well might be looking for a clearly rising international star, not an unknown.

    I'm not big on social media but check out how many followers or likes an actor has...that will eventually lead Amazon and its algorithms to the next Bond actor.

    They are going to want someone who already is demonstrating international appeal and not someone who is only just breaking in the UK or US. There was a chance of that with Broccoli and Wilson with their deep ties to the British film industry, but that is not the case with Amazon.

    He actually deleted Instagram a few weeks ago, but he had 12 million follows before doing so. Personally, I LOVE the idea of Elordi getting the role. He is a good actor and looks like a leading man. He has been my number one choice for over a year now and I hope Amazon agree, he was phtographed with Jennifer Salke at the Saltburn premiere...even has the company logo behind him

    I have been saying....

    (I actually mentioned to @peter that this week it feels as though I have been writing all the news stories. Everything I wanted is happening! It's like Amazon have hacked into my brain. Couldn't be more happy)

    He looks embarrassed to be on camera.

    So does Brad Pitt, and yet the camera eats him up, in the best sense. But I get what you mean.

    Someone on the Empire podcast mentioned Daryl McCormack, I think he’s come up in the thread before but, yeah, could be a decent option.

    I’ve seen him in a few things. I like him, though the things I’ve seen him in have given him fairly light roles.

    I'm going to laugh so hard when Chalamet is cast... All the other guys hinted are coat hangers. It's going to be Chalamet, period. He would be the perfect Gen Z Bond. You don't change a winning team.

    Well there would be no expiration date.

    Unless something totally different is meant by that term.

    Yeah I’d need to see him in something a bit meatier before I’m more convinced. Basically I need to see them all have their own Rebel Ridge!
