Acting is a lost art, mostly.
Gerard Butler would make a perfect James Bond because of his Scottish background and he can pull off some great action scenes.
Ivote Tom Ellis (Lucifer) or Jason Statham for the next James Bond.
What about Arnold Schwarzenegger?
Definitely Richard Armitage. He's so versatile! (And totally dishy…) Idris Elba a close second, then Clive Owen.
Aiden Turner all the way
I think Clive Owen would be perfect as 007
Don't care who the next Bond is as long as they get Craig and Judy Dench out of there ASAP!!! BTW, Craig would make an excellent Vladimir Putin in the Donald Trump story
tom cruise for me or charlie sheen
Idris Elba…………………………………………………..sigh……………….
Christian Bale is perfect
Mathew Goode definitely
rowan atkinson..
Jason Statham
jason statham as bond
Eric Bana !!!!!!! The weird Hulk of 2003. Are you kidding me
I think Colin Firth would do well as 007
any actor who is not British/Irish can't be bond, sorry. #10 … who?
Yeah , Idris Alba. Love him as a person, and actor and work . Not James Bond. Sorry. PC doesn't make it right. Why no Christian Bale ? I like Fassbender off this list.
Simon Pegg in the next Shaft reboot!?!
scott adkins is qualified
What about Jason Statham? Do you think he would be a good fit for James Bond?
I'd like to see ed skrien as the next bond…
Bond is a white brit, not black, not American. End of. Oh and for the idiotic woman who said the other day that there should be a female Bond, Go stick your stupid head in the oven .
Michael Fassbender has my vote!
surprised henry cavill wasnt mentioned. although not my fav actor i believe he was and is under serious consideration for the role of 007.
LaJames Bond starring Idris Elba!
Don't agree with this list. None of these actors are worthy of Bond role none in my opinion have the look of sophistication nor charm.
Christian Bale would do great
Shaft should never be played by a white guy (or Samuel L. Jackson) and Bond should not be played by a black guy…they just would not be Shaft or Bond because that is not who they are.
CLIVE OVEN! LOOLOLOOOOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!
FASTBENDER!!!!
Shia LaBeouf please
According to Ms Fleming, he always wanted a woman as 007 , back in the days it was difficult for the audience, but now it will me perfect , plus his dream will come true….
Could another Scottish actor play James Bond? Ian Fleming readers know that James Bond is a Scot.
clive Owen, tom hiddlestone definitely not idris alba
Tom Hiddleston baby… lets go in a different direction
Jason stathan
Gerald batler cause he is a Scott
Leunardro d caprio
Sorry. Bond isn't black. A black Bond would tank. Hard.
Bradley cooper will suit best for the role of 007
hell yeah idris elba! black bond here we come white boys! thanks bitches! haaaa!
daniel craig was the hardest bullheaded bond ever. brosnan (my favorite) was the funnest to watch and funny. connery was the asshole with good charm and charisma who the book describes him as. and roger moore was meh. if i didnt mention any other bonds its cause they sucked. everyone though craig wouldnt be good he has blonde hair….he turned out to be the toughest bond yet. my thoughts on a badass franchise.
Theo James would make a good 007
Lewis Collins was the Bond that never was.He was thought to be too violent for that time period. Timothy Dalton got the part instead.
