  • Stuart Martin is a possibility who looks similar to Jackman. Impossible to tell if he would be right for it as he's stuck in Zack Snyder movies.

  • Luke Evans would have been great, and there's a huge difference between him ans most of these other candidates.
  • PDJamesBond wrote: » I'm super pumped about this film, but the runtime of 2 hours, 49 minutes is a bit daunting. That's longer than NTTD! Yes but it's only cool to criticise Bond films for their length.

  • Stuart Martin is a bit of a Hugh Jackman clone. He appears to be quite bad at picking films though.
