Yet both characters have the same name, same job, similar drinking and eating habits, they both seduce women in a fairly high number, both have similar tastes... Oh and the movies were originally adapted from the novels at some point. But otherwise yes totally different entities.
Come on,put back mind into it.
Well it's called source material for a reason.
Good. Maybe we can have a decent pool of potential successors.
Second, the career Bond had in the novels is highly unlikely now, as he joined the military after dropping out of school and lying about his age. Also, in war, making promotion is easier. He could still dso it nowedays (dropping out of school) but it's highly unlikely he'd climb through the ranks that quickly.
So starting as double-oh he should at least be in his (early) thirties, and he could basically go on 'till his mid-fifties (most military have a pension age around 50-55) because you're considered not fit enough.
With movie magic you can obviously stretch it, depending on the actor probably to around 58ish.
Seeing the covers he's used, as account manager for an international firm, banker, teacher (ok, that one is irrellevant), high stakes gambler, one would expect him to be a bit seasoned.
So, next Bond should be at least in his thirties in 2021.
He will be at least 57 in his first film. Too old, and can we really have a Bond with glasses?
Surely he can wear contact lenses? Next Bond right here!
Nonsense. He's wearing a tuxedo, that's all I need to see. Colbert confirmed for B26.
I pissed myself off by Googling James Corden's face. Painfully unfunny individual.
He really is. I tried watching his show once...
Yes, all those try-hards on talks shows... Colbert is actually good, but most of them are bloody awful and pretty embarrassing to watch.
Patton Oswalt is one of the likes that I was referring to, who's pretty much the American version of James Corden. Both unfunny people.
Thank God!!!!
Off topic but hilarious.
