Does CE approve of Sam taking up the mantle?



https://www.justjared.com/2021/07/15/sam-heughan-talks-james-bond-rumors-his-thoughts-on-his-previous-audition-for-the-role/

Sam Heughan has long been rumored as one of the top choices to play James Bond next after Daniel Craig steps away from the role in the upcoming No Time To Die.

Well, the 41-year-old actor made an appearance on the Just The Facts with Alex Zane podcast and was asked about the rumors.

"It's all media, and theres no weight to it at all, theres no truth to it. Having said that, you cant help but then think, God, it would be amazing, Samadded.

And I have been up for Bond, I went up for it when they did Bond 21. It was an amazing experience and I was completely out of my depth. But I think now I feel the right age for it, I feel capable enough to do it, Id love the opportunity to throw my hat in the ring, he continued. Bond 21 was 2006s Casino Royale, which ultimately went to Daniel Craig.







What does CE think?

He's too old now. These Bond films take too long to make now and require multi-film contracts. He'll be 60 by the time he is done.

I expect Bond to have dark brown hair like most actors who played the character and a face that gives off a cold and ruthless demeanor like he has seen some really fucked up shit during his career. This guy could pull off the former simply by dying his hair, but his face does not give me the latter impression as he looks more like the male protagonist from a chick flick movie (which he kind of was in "The Spy Who Dumped Me") than a super spy like Bond.

That said, Craig should have been forced to dye his hair a darker color for the role or otherwise give up the role to someone else. Allowing him to stay blond for the role without even digitally editing his hair was not a good move.

More unrealistic expectations of the male body in main stream media.

Why can't DJ Qualls play Bond? Or Simon Pegg?
Or David Thewlis?

Why do people give a shit what color Bond's hair color is. As long as he's not ginger, of course.

There are so few blonds and redheads left in Hollywood.

Heres hoping the gay Green Lantern is blonde in the show.

https://variety.com/2021/tv/news/green-lantern-jeremy-irvine-hbo-max-alan-scott-gay-superhero-1234977204/

HBO Maxs upcoming Green Lantern series is eyeing actor Jeremy Irvine for the role of Alan Scott.

Irvine would join Finn Wittrock in the series, who has been cast in the lead role of Guy Gardner. HBO Max declined to comment.

Scott was Earths first Green Lantern, who, true to the comics, is a gay man. He was created by Martin Nodell and made his comic book debut in 1940. A train engineer by trade, Scott derived his powers from a mystical green lantern crafted from a mysterious meteorite. He later joined the Justice Society of America, and in universe-hopping adventures would sometimes team with members of the Green Lantern Corps, including Hal Jordan.

All that really matters to me is if he can do some sort of "British" accent. Doesn't even need to the standard "RP" one, any will do.

007 is not the necessarily the same as James Bond, and until the movie comes out, we don't know what happens that warrants Bond making a reappearance in future movies.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

Yes, it would: the British insist that James Bond must be British himself. Casting an American in a traditionally British-only role is going to cause a massive riot throughout the UK.
