I like Holbrook as an actor. Would be nice to see him in a slightly meatier supporting role regardless of what it is.

Even if hypothetically all of them wanted Craig and no one else, they’d surely still have done the auditions of others for their own benefit just to ensure they had a back up if Craig had dropped out. Considering the amount of names they considered …

P&W are fine. Actually some of the more interesting stuff of the modern Bond films come from them. It’s all about the director/who they bring on to develop the script further which makes or breaks these films.

I can’t think of what’s worse - a new Bond actor having their ‘unveiling’ overshadowed by having their predecessors nearby, or dragging all those poor old actors out for such an elaborate publicity event. Needless to say it’d be ill conceived. Th…

More Bond auditions would be cool to see, but at the same time I understand why we only have a select few. I doubt specific permission is needed from the actors but I think EON know most wouldn’t necessarily want some of these auditions made public,…

Personally, I think Bond should always be what the Fleming novels and essentially all the films are: easily consumable, escapist fare with a dose of fantasy, mixed with a good splash of intelligence, nuances of character, and even darkness. They’re …

I’ve said it many times, but when EON get to a certain point with this film, the auditions (ie. the fact that they’re going on) won’t be a secret. They’ll announce their director, writers, release dates, perhaps the title etc. and then begin officia…

I can’t think of a single Bond film that hasn’t in some way taken influence from other films… not sure if I can think of any film in general that hasn’t taken influence from another film either. I’d also say that I can’t think of any Bond film I’…

I always find there’s a wonderful ‘anything goes’ quality to MR. Like it’s some sort of half remembered dream of a Bond film. The closest I can describe it for me is it’s a lighthearted version of how I see NTTD. It’s very enjoyable though, and o…

I think ATJ said it best himself. At the moment he’s concentrating on Kraven (depressing as that is). That’s what’s in front of him. A Bond audition hypothetically, maybe, a year from now isn’t even worth thinking about for him.

I mean, if anyone wants a counterpoint to the genetic outlier thing (whatever that is)/the 1 percent or whatever who look like prime era Sean Connery, I'll say this: even if someone happens to fall into that 'strikingly good looking' category, it do…

At the moment, I do struggle a bit seeing something in Leo Suter for Bond. But it's very possible he's an option. I just haven't seen him in something where I've felt he's had quite the right gravitas.

I mean, both QOS and DAD add something to the Bond series, and in ways I would describe as Bondian. DAD obviously features a Bond who, for all intents and purposes fails at the beginning of the film and is captured/tortured, with a good chunk of the…
