Fuck bond, the character and setting is played out at this point with too many mediocre movies.

no.

If this guy becomes an actor, I’d love to see him in a John Wick spinoff. Yes, let’s make him a super spy government spook (he makes that suit look good), but he’s trying to unravel the criminal underground and gets to discover just how deep the rabithole goes. His “successful” career up to this point has been taking down scapegoats. Everything turns sideways just before retirement, and the latest criminal mastermind somehow lets slip that the whole thing has been a sham, and he’s just a sacrifice to keep the alphabet agencies occupied. Thing is, he’s actually good at his job, and now he knows what he’s looking for. Retirement is going to have to wait.

Idk Bond is this interesting cultural touchstone that I think is important to keep around. I know for me it was actually a very effective first step in to becoming critical of how women are depicted in cinema, and that message got through to me at actually a pretty early age. Around high school IIRC.

That being said I do think directors should be bolder in their vision and take bigger risks with it. It could be so much more and its history in many ways will make that all the more impactful.

TL;DR: We aren’t beholden to Fleming’s original vision. Bond can be whatever we want them to be.

Edit: yes the “them” was intentional

I wonder how he’d look bald. I’ve always believed that a well-done Hitman series would give James Bond a run for their money. The catch is that it’d have to be self-parodying but presented without a hint of irony or humor.

A good hitman movie/TV show would swing from serious to absurd and back so hard you’d get whiplash

John Wick is played out too, and more recently so. I’ve seen all of them, including the spin-off series and only the first one needs to exist. I’d much rather have a Bond thing.

How’s his English accent?
