The difficulty for this bond casting is they want someone “young” when truly they are plenty of British actors in their 40s who can pull out the acting and the charisma.
An actor in their 20s-30s is harder to find
@Kitsune156 meanwhile i was in an english bookstore today and apparently i now detest the idea of reading a book in english? i read a few books in slovak and suddenly my love for reading is renewed but only for reading in slovak
Men always fan cast James Bond with the actor they have the biggest homosocial fixation on and it’s like thank you for sharing something so personal with us but that’s not really the criteria we’re working with here
idk what can be done. you'd think because so many are talent deficient we'd have many hot ones but nobody is hot either! there's a drought of beauty AND talent, how can that be? surely you must have at least one of these!
It’s a little sad Dev Patel seemingly wasn’t even in consideration for Bond. MONKEY MAN felt like his audition for Bond the same way LAYER CAKE was for Daniel Craig.
bond being so hard to cast is like... okay we're obviously in an actor crisis. there's never been such shortage of... gravitas, ever in the history of cinema.
