Casting for Bond Begins: "It's a 10 to 12-year Commitment...Not Everyone Wants to Do That!"

[trekkiepetrelli]

A search is currently underway for a new James Bond: “When we cast Bond, it’s a 10-, 12-year commitment. Not everybody wants to do that. It was hard enough getting [Daniel Craig to do it]. And he was in his early 30s at the time!”

Idris would’ve been a good Bond, had they cast him 10 years or so ago.

no God not an American. Especially not an American actor attempting an accent. Australian, sure. Or at least keep it Commonwealth.

Oh God and he'd try to do the soundtrack for his own movie. That way he can get TWO Oscars, slay!

honestly I don’t care. All the names being thrown around are boring af to me and unless they make bond campy and fun again I’m not interested.

I feel like they will? It seems like they switch up between fun, camp Bond and gritty, realism Bond.

John Boyega is right here
Dev Patel
Put them on rotation, a new Bond with every movie

[barbarbarian]

I would spontaneously combust if Dev Patel was Bond tbh. Not bc I think the role is that great, but because 12 years of Dev Patel in tailored suits sounds like fanfic I would most definitely write.

I'm getting hot and bothered just thinking about it

i have never in my life cared for this franchise, but if they cast dev patel you better believe i'd watch every single one
