    None of the fellas mentioned in these 1324 pages will be Bond.

    Bond will be an unknown, as close as they can get to a mesh of the Bond from the books and the Bond from the films, minus the ten years of age they think will put Bond on their demographics bullseye.

    Do you really believe that?

    I think it’s bound to be someone we’ve mentioned. They’re not going to go with someone with no tv or film experience. I just can’t see it.

    There are a few actors of the right age that haven’t been brought up here (Cassian Bilton from the Apple TV+ show Foundation, for example), but even then I think they’re still on our radar, so to speak. Anyone with the required talent will be working on our screens somewhere, imo.

    I get the vibe that Suter could be a good side character agent.

    I know! Like, he’s a fellow 00 or British agent who Bond immediately distrusts and at some point is revealed to be working for the villain. He gets a particularly nasty death too.

    That’s very much the vibe I get too, haha.

    I don't know, little I've seen of him I get more of a Brosnan vibe personally. Not that's necessarily a good thing, mind you.

    I always liked that Sam Mendes pictured Damian Lewis as the 009 Bond steals the Aston DB10 from :D

    That's a rumor I have never heard of.

    I feel like he's said out loud before. Lewis was never in the frame to actually play him, it's just that Mendes had an idea of the character in his head and he pictured Lewis.

    Unlikely. You have 100+ Bond-obsessed people on this forum who "waste" their time finding possible candidates. I bet the name of the next Bond actor has or will come up before it's officially announced.

    Yes I think the chance that someone has guessed him is pretty high. The idea that there's some perfect idealised candidate out there that no-one has ever seen is wishful thinking and can only lead to disappointment.
    I remember someone on here even guessed 'No Time To Die' as a film title at some point! :D

    Alright, then. It will either Louis Partridge or Callum Turner.

    I mean, I hope.

    Turner is high on my shortlist but I went to see GoldenEye in the cinema and before it came on there was a promo for House of Guinness with Partridge and I've only seen him in Enola Holmes when he was even younger, so I think even Bond #8 might be too soon. I don't know if it's because I had Brosnan on the brain but I could see the same kind of charisma in that short clip.
