I nominate this guy to be the next bond I think he has that look, the humor and the qualities to portray Bond.
Pierce is my favorite Bond. I wish he would have had better stories. I also wish he would have had a fifth movie. Without a doubt he certainly was the best dressed Bond. Those Brioni suits are classic.
First movie I remember going to as a kid with my family was with Roger Moore. I can barely watch his movies now. The 70s movies were all about camp. If you look at Superman from the 70s they were campy and so was Bond. His wardrobe is deplorable.
Only thing I have to say about him is I hate those tight ass suits. His height is listed at 5'10 which means he's probably 5'8" Lashana Lynch is taller than him. Sean Connery, Roger Moore, George Lazenby, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan all of them over 6'
What can you say about Sean Connery best of them all. That suit is from 60s and still looks good.

Whole post is sus!
For those who have already seen the movie. Haven't watched this clip yet, as I haven't seen the movie.
Saw it on the Youtube main page as a recommended video, and thought I'd add it to this thread ...

James Bond producer says it'll be 'at least 2 years' before new film
James Bond producer Barbara Broccoli says it will be 'at least two years' before 'the reinvention' of the character in the next film.
Ana de Armas says 'there's no need for a female Bond,' but calls for better roles for women
Ana de Armas, who played Paloma in 'No Time to Die,' says that there's no need to replace Daniel Craig with a woman, but instead, she'd like to see female roles in the films be "given a more substantial part."

I agree. No need for a female or a Black James Bond.

MI6 Is Looking for a New Bond. I’ve Got Some Suggestions.

It’s been a little over a year since Daniel Craig — the husband of the beautiful, talented, Academy Award–winning actress Rachel Weisz — decided to hang up his cuff links as the reckless, womanizing, unreliable rogue agent James Bond. In that time, speculation has mounted about who will fill his calfskin size 45 Crockett & Jones oxfords.
Introducing Into It with Sam Sanders, Vulture’s new culture podcast.
LISTEN NOW
Unfortunately, the franchise’s long-standing producers, Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, have not yet truly donned their thinking caps. In an interview with Variety, they said it’s still “early days” and the franchise is taking “a couple of years off,” but they did lay out a few Bond basics they’re looking for in their next suit. They want someone to do it for a long time, they want someone who isn’t Idris Elba (“So he’s probably thinking, Do I really want that thing?” Broccoli said, without revealing if they actually just … asked him), and they want someone worth the big investment. Got it.
But what they have yet to say is “You know, what if we tried something new, what if we thought outside the box?” And that’s what I’m here for, to open my classified files and offer my own expert suggestions for the new 007. (See my qualifications here, here, and here.) You’re welcome in advance. If this goes well, next we’ll do villains, starting with Daniel Kaluuya.
It bears repeating that this list is classified, so please do not leave it unattended in a safe in Florida where any FBI agent can find it after receiving an anonymous tip.
Richard ‘No Middle Name’ Madden
Age: 36
Birthplace: Elderslie, United Kingdom (a.k.a. Scotland)
Strengths: He’s handsome, which means his face card won’t be declined while trying to infiltrate roped-off areas or woo unsuspecting, helpless damsels. He doesn’t have a middle name, which is weird but very Bond-like. He also looks damn good in a suit. I mean, he basically auditioned for 007 in his TV miniseries Bodyguard. You’re not slick, Richie. I see you.
Weaknesses: He is not at all aware of his surroundings. I mean, just Google “Richard Madden Froy Gutierrez Italy.”
Bottom Line: He is a very safe choice, and safe is boring. Is he hot? Yes. Does he look good emerging from the water with his shirt off? Also yes. On an unusually warm autumnal day when the breeze catches the grey streak in his hair and it kisses his forehead gently do I want to melt? Absolutely. But surely we can do better.
Roman ‘Slimepuppy’ Roy
Age: 34 (probably)
Birthplace: Some penthouse in the United States
Strengths: He’s not British, so, like, who is going to suspect he’s working for MI6? Exactly, no one. Q won’t have an issue with Roman because he’s great with gadgets and electronics. Did he accidentally send his dad a dick pic? Yes, but it was one time! Did he blow up a rocket? Technically no, but every company needs a fall guy. This agent will complete all his missions in no time (with a little complaining), and he won’t be distracted by feminine wiles because, well — just because.
Weaknesses: He’s not British. The other agents would be like, “U wot m8?” and his cover would be blown. Plus, the whole rocket thing was kind of a mess actually.
Bottom Line: You know, not everyone is cut out for MI6. Maybe he should just take his father’s money and open up an art gallery. All the talentless NYC nepo babies are doing it.
Jacob Tremblay
Age: 15
Birthplace: Vancouver, Canada
Strengths: The producers were adamant that the prestigious role of James Bond is a “ten- to twelve-year commitment.” Who better to honor that commitment than an award-winning actual child? I mean, what else is he doing for the next decade? He would be able to come and go unsuspectingly because most people are too trusting of kids — which they shouldn’t be! Have you never seen The Good Son with Macaulay Culkin and Elijah Wood? Or Orphan with that scary li’l girl who is actually a grown woman? Or Jon & Kate Plus 8? Fuck them kids.
Weaknesses: Cannot reach high shelves. How is he supposed to save the country when he can’t even reach on top of the refrigerator?
Bottom Line: Maybe not the best choice. Hmmm, if only there was a spy-movie franchise that starred kids.
Matthew Charles Berry (or Matt Berry, as I call him when we text)
Age: A sensual 48
Birthplace: Bromham, United Kingdom
Strengths: Where do I start? Never has there ever been someone so commanding, so devastatingly charming, so up for anything, and I mean anything, as Sir Matt Berry. He is the mother I never had, the sister anybody would want. Plus, his character Lazlo in What We Do in the Shadows famously said, “Gay is in. Gay is hot. I want some gay. Gay it’s gonna be.” So could we have our very first LGBTQ+ Bond? I think so!
Weaknesses: N/A
Bottom Line: What role can’t Matt Berry play? His file has been moved to the top of the pile with $20 paper-clipped to it.
Daniel Michael DeVito Jr.
Age: 77
Birthplace: Neptune Township, New Jersey
Strengths: Danny DeVito is no stranger to blending in with his environment. I mean, have you seen Twins? Oscar. Emmy. Tony. Grammy. Teen Choice Award. He’s funny, resourceful, and most importantly, sexy!
Weaknesses: Being from New Jersey. Also, he’s four-ten, so getting in and out of an Aston Martin may be an issue.
Bottom Line: Uncle Danny may be a bit more cut out for the villain roles. I love Colin Farrell, but his Penguin will never measure up to Danny’s. (That sounds like a euphemism, but it’s not.)
Glen Thomas Powell Jr.
Age: 33
Birthplace: Austin, Texas
Strengths: He’s literally so hot.
Weaknesses: Being too hot. This is a real problem in the hot community that a lot of us have been suffering with in silence. But no more!
Bottom Line: He’s not British, but he is white, so I doubt people will tell the difference or care!
William Jack Poulter
Age: 29
Birthplace: Hammersmith London, United Kingdom
Strengths: He’s six-three, which is not too tall but also not too short. He’s extremely hot and can reach atop the refrigerator. He is British. Also has great arms. I am actually moving his file to the top of this stack with $100 paper-clipped to it.
Weaknesses: Is not married to me.
Bottom Line: There is only one man who is truly still in the running toward becoming Britain’s Next Top Secret Agent, and it’s him. Congratulations.
Not to be overlooked, a few runner-ups:
Regé-Jean Page: I mean, we saw what happened when a mermaid was Black! Plus, he has no charisma — moving on.
Dev Patel: I think he can get the job done, but I don’t want to see him in peril — my heart can’t take it.
Ezra Miller: Who better to commit crimes for the government?
Daniel Craig Reveals He Needed James Bond's Death In No Time To Die
The actor admits he needed to move on.

Daniel Craig Reveals He Needed James Bond's Death In No Time To Die
BYOLIVIA EVANS
PUBLISHED 8 HOURS AGO
The longtime James Bond actor says he felt it was time for him to move on from the action film franchise and felt it needed to start over without him.
Daniel Craig reveals he was ready to move on from the James Bond franchise before his character died in No Time to Die. The English actor played the legendary MI6 agent in five movies across 15 years, with his final turn coming in the 2021 film from director Cary Joji Fukunaga. While the role has changed hands several times over several decades, No Time to Die made the unprecedented decision to kill off Craig's version of 007 in its closing minutes, bringing his era of the franchise to an unquestioned close.
In a recent profile for the Los Angeles Times, the actor bluntly reveals that he was ready for his character’s demise. After playing the role of the iconic spy for so long, Craig struggled to look back on his time playing the character a little over a year after his time in the franchise had wrapped. The actor had been vocal in the past about the physical toll that playing James Bond took on him, and he expands this point of view in the interview, explaining he was ready for it to be over. Read what Craig says about his departure below:
RELATED:Henry Cavill's New Movie Makes Up For His Missed James Bond Opportunity
Why James Bond Dying Was Right For the Franchise
With the James Bond series being some of the most praised action films of the last decade, it has certainly taken a toll on Craig as an actor. The physical ability of Bond is no small feat for any actor to portray, and the repetitive nature of the series was undoubtedly grueling. What’s more, Craig’s participation in the series defines his career thus far, but from what he’s done in Knives Out and Glass Onion, it’s evident the actor has strengths he can build on more fruitfully in roles outside the Bond franchise.
Craig has infamously been over playing his character since the release of Spectre in 2015, but that isn’t the only reason the franchise was helped by his character’s death. His run lasted almost as long as Sean Connery’s, allowing his time in the franchise to become just as iconic. Connery played Bond in seven films between 1962 and 1983, and his franchise-starting performance is generally considered the measuring stick for all 007s that follow. Although Craig did not make as many films as Connery, the extent of his time as James Bond is worth the comparison, and No Time to Die was a good moment for his tenure to end.
With Craig’s stint as James Bond ending so recently, it’s likely fans won’t have another Bond for at least a few more years. However, this will give the franchise time to grow into a new thing, as it did many times between Connery and Craig’s run. James Bond is one of the best action heroes that exists in film, and Craig certainly did the role justice with his No Time to Die exit.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson Offered James Bond Role, Reports Say
He would be the eighth actor to take on the iconic role since the film series began in 1962.
Sorry, ladies, but I’m relieved the new James Bond is a man
With Aaron Taylor-Johnson lined up to be Daniel Craig’s successor in the 007 film franchise, Rosamund Hall says casting a woman in the role of the suave but arrogant secret service agent would have been a simplistic avoidance of the real necessity – to create better characters for female actors

Nope..should be a unknown IMO
But a blonde James Bond was okay? GTFOH.
Peeped her out from Knock Knock
Bond is just a holdover and symbol of British colonialism. Why would you want to see a Black man in that role?
My point was not about Idris. My point was that they have already broken from the origin of the appearance of the character. The B.S. excuse they made was to make "James Bond" a designation / code name instead of an actual person, unlike who he is in the books. So, now that they have done that, they have thrown open the doors for who James Bond can be.
That is all.
He is not a real character. He is a work of fiction.
And now, anyone can be Bond.
