Indeed. Maybe something of a response to that reported Tom Holland pitch. I wonder how seriously they considered it, or something like it first.
Also, we've gotten a young Bond recently. I assume they cast somebody for the Skyfall PTS, right?:
Agreed. I think it's also a key component of his character that he's survived longer than other 00s, and as such he should be a little older than his contemporaries. With the exception of Casino Royale, I suppose.
That's good. I've said the same thing for a while now. Didn't work as a concept in the early drafts of CR, won't work now. Bond is most interesting as a 00 anyway, so he should be experienced and in his 30s.
As for Cosmo Jarvis, I'm not sure. To be honest I can imagine him better as a villain. I think it's the fact that he's just a tad bit too muscular, and just a tad bit too 'good looking'. There's just that lack of something 'relatable' about him perhaps to be the protagonist, especially one like Bond. Solid actor though.
Was that actor’s name ever credited? Weird to have someone play Bond that prominently and not know who they are!
Am I missing something? That's just Daniel Craig in the Skyfall titles, isn't it?
At the end of the titles it is, but halfway through it's boy Bond, as recounted in the story Kincaide tells M later about Bond hiding in the priesthole when he found out his parents had been killed.
The Skyfall credits are clever like that, on a couple of occasions they show us bits of plot we're only told about later on in the film, like the brief glimpse of Silva being tortured when he was an MI6 agent.
Er what do you mean ?
Never mind.. read the following comments
This is in reference to the second time the eyes appear. They appear twice folks. I know the second time is Daniel. The first time is not. Thanks.
Right, yeah, it does appear twice. I'm confused. So it's definitely another actor? Or did they manipulate the shot to make him appear younger. Still has his eyes.
Someone else above said it was confirmed to be another actor, which was news to me.
I literally posted the screenshots in this thread. You're not going to convince me there isn't a younger actor in those screenshots!

Not the same person. I feel like I'm losing my mind. Are we all actually looking at the reference?
I daresay the kid had a bit of digital tweaking to his eyes and possibly even ears to better match Craig's.
EDIT: the_double_0_look
It’s funny because it very well may be a different person, but certainly not a nine year old or whatever, hiding in the priest’s hole!
It's a Scottish 9-year-old, so about 20 in normal years.
