Is it really impossible to find a replacement for Daniel Craig to play James Bond because today's younger actors are too hopelessly juvenile to fulfill that role?

Tom Hardy, he was great in several things that reeked of the Golden age of acting. Idris Elba is very good too.

I am sure the Bond movies were killed forever by the last double 007 movie. Bond was played weakly, he even died badly. All he had to do was escape, and avoid his woman and daughter.... or die. Bond doesn’t choose death, he would come back and defend the Queen and Country.

Ha. What I’ve been thinking is to train an AI with Rush’s broadcasts.

Actually, since there has been a clamor for a female Bond, I’ve suggested that the solution to that is to create a cousin for 007 named Jane Bond, have her work with him on the next movie, then spin her off into her own series. She can be agent 008.

They had written the role for Moore, but he was committed to The Saint, so they got Connery, who defined the part.

The same thing would happen to them later on. When they first tried to get Pierce Brosnan, he was committed to Remington Steele, so they hired Timothy Dalton.

The series just needs to end, no place for Bond left to go.

That will ruin one of Yogi Berra’s best lines:

“Steve McQueen is really good in this movie. They must have made it before he died.”

Deep-fake Sean Connery.

Seriously. This is where the tech is going.

I predict before long, we'll see brand-new movies made with the likeneses of deceased actors, licensed by their estate holders.

To God's ears.

Sean Connery looked older as did most actors of that earlier time then their age.

He’s 54. He would probably have to be a short-timer.

Maybe Ben Barnes from “Shadow and Bone”. Hes got the Pierce Brosnan type looks.
