  • Muse could do a cool Bond song too. Again, while I wouldn’t say there’s no consideration for which artist could appeal to certain audiences, I don’t think it’s fully motivated by that, and at some point it’s about who will give us the right song.
  • Owen’s another one who never really made it quite as big as his Bond hype would suggest unfortunately. I think he’s another actor better on television rather than one with the charisma to excel on film (although I like him in Children of Men. Never …

  • To be fair I think Jackman’s great offscreen/public energy isn’t necessarily the same as his onscreen charisma. It’s the same for any actor. Plenty of great actors like Robert De Niro aren’t outgoing or even always comfortable in the public light, b…
  • Bit of a deviation, but with the latest announcement about Project 007 and it being described as having ‘a young Bond’, I wonder if that’ll factor into what they do with Bond 26. Not saying they’ll go for an origin story or a 24 year old Bond, bu…

  • Personally, I’ve just never been wowed by him as an actor. He’s certainly not a bad one, but I just don’t see much of that gravitas or something special we’ve talked about. Again, I just don’t see what he’d bring either. I think his age would onl…

  • Very interesting. Not sure how I feel about describing this origin story as a ‘young Bond’ thing, but I presume they simply mean a younger Bond getting his 00 status rather than him as a teenager or something. Anyway, it’s nice to hear it going w…

  • Yeah, there's really no way of knowing for sure unless he's actually offered and accepts/ultimately becomes the next Bond... I'd say what gives a good indication is that he's said he likely wouldn't take it. I really don't think he's lying. There's …
  • I'm pretty sure it won't be Turner. And yes, he's openly said he's not interested (I think his actual response when asked if he'd take the part if offered was 'probably not' presumably followed by a chuckle). I know he's said prior to that that he l…

  • The Man Who Built The Moon (which I guess is by Noel Gallagher’s band after Oasis? I don’t know, not much of an Oasis fan) sounds like it could be a Bond song. To be honest I can imagine them doing better than Radiohead’s effort for SP.
  • I’m not sure if either James or ATJ will be the one. ATJ I think will have a lot lined up and may not even be interested. James has openly said he doesn’t think he’s right for the part and has said it would probably have too much impact on his perso…

  • I genuinely don’t remember hearing/watching the music video for YKMN before CR came out. I have very vague memories of it but I don’t remember it being that big. Awesome song though, but I’m not sure how big a rock star Chris Cornell was (more culty…
  • To be honest, I’m not sure how true that is. Not to say there’ll be no consideration for what’s commercially/critically viable and in their interests. It’s very unlikely we’ll get a little known artist/one who doesn’t have enough appeal. The next…

  • SF I’d say is a pretty amazing song and the best of the Craig era. It’s Bondian and perfectly conveys what the film’s about. I wouldn’t call it depressing at all. If anything it’s weirdly uplifting. I really like YKMN too. I don’t have a preference …

  • Obviously it’s an exhausted topic by now on these forums. It simply comes down to no one knowing exactly what EON are doing at this time (it’s absolutely true and likely that they are doing preliminary work, especially in terms of looking for/approa…
  • If Bond 26 had a big, bold rock song as its title tune I’d be ok with that. It’s a bit of an obvious choice but I can imagine someone like Hozier doing it. I’m sure there are loads of other weird and wonderful choices though.
