I agree. Both Owen and Fassbender are missed opportunities. But, at least we've got Fassbender's likeness for Bond in the recent [faithful] graphic novel adaptation of CR.
My son is one and a half and already a womanizer. At the optician he grabbed the bottom of a good looking woman and she thought he was very cute. I think he's got some chances. He's also a natural actor and a natural fighter.

I don't think this will happen but just throwing it out as a (crazy) idea...
What if someone new came along and was mega-cheap to hire? Say, less than 100 thousand dollars to hire and Bond 25's release date got dragged out beyond 2019? You could argue for Craig to be paid a percentage of his fee (let's say 10 - 25 percent, perhaps more), he's released from his one picture contract and EON/MGM save money casting the new actor! If Bond 25 were to be delayed until 2020 I think recasting, saving the cash, would make sense.
Timothy Dalton was going to be make a third Bond film and it didn't happen. John Gavin was signed up for Diamonds Are Forever. Pierce Brosnan was signed up for The Living Daylights. Things can change so it's not impossible to think a long delay could result in recasting the role.
Cheers, I was waiting for that. So it looks like Aidan will have 5 series of Poldark just like Brosnan did with Remington Steele. People say Craig is like the next Dalton in terms of having that hard edged realistic approach. Turner could follow in Brosnans shoes as a crowd pleaser, if he is picked.
I think Hiddleston could nail Bond x always have x but it needs to be soon !
I'm still not convinced by Hiddleston, but the longer this drags on, the more I am willing to give him a chance.
And it isn't like I am turning against Craig, because I have never really been on side with his casting. I kept my mouth shut when he was cast, to see what he would be like, but he wasn't my choice, and he never had a film that truly won me over. So I am more than ready for a new era, ditching the dreary drama, for films that are 100% comfortable with being Bond films (whether they have a romance/action/spy thriller slant). And with an actor that has the balls to stand up for the character, whenever his personality traits are questioned.

Shame they couldn't get him in for B25,at least it would speed the transition up.
"There’s someone else playing the role at the moment but when it’s free I’ll have a look at it."
"You're a cocky little bastard aren't you?"
He certainly has the right attitude, and I would very much like to see him in the role i just hope he doesn't talk to much about it from here on, as it usually seems to diminish peoples chances.
I have to give it to him: however unconvinced I am about him as Bond he's playing his cards right. Charlie What's-his-name came off as way too eager.
David Beckham ??!!
Piss off.
I'd rather cast Grandad even !
Oh I do as well,a lot more,i think he has potential and is only 34.
But they would need to get rid of Craig NOW imo .
Turner could start as soon as Poldark series 5 is filmed.
Don't give them any idea.I'm still outraged about that Robbie Williams rumour from about 20 years.
These people apparently only want a Bond poster with Beckham instead of a movie, because a professional photoshoot is pretty much all you could hope to get from the guy.
On the other hand, and i will probably get banned for life from this forum for saying this lol, but i totally would not mind Daniel Radcliffe as Bond :))
And that has purely selfish reasons, which are that i get constantly told i look like him, even by total strangers, going as far as one waitress flipping out in a restaurant and almost asking me for an autograph before i convinced her i am not him. Personally i don't see the resemblence but whatever.
Would be nice to say i look like james bond one day though :D
(It's never gonna happen so don't kill me)
I think the trick with Bond is that we the viewer must be able to (and must want to) sympathize with him, given his profession results in him doing some pretty bad things. I'm not sure if Barnes would be able to convey that appropriately.
