    I don't think he looked bad at the into awards or on the Omaze campaign!

    I thought he looked great in the Omaze video. He is/can get into better shape than anyone at his age who's played the part. IMO I have not seen anyone who could do as good of a job as Craig has done.

    I was watching Hiddleston in an interview on Graham Norton doing Pacino/DeNiro impressions (in front of DeNiro) and didn't know whether to laugh or cry...

    He just looks a bit jet lagged and probably hung over :))

    His haircut looks considerably better than it does in any of his Bond films. His Bond haircuts, particularly in SF and SP, age him more than anything.

    Particularly Skyfall, in some scenes it just doesn't compliment him at all, but then on the cover of Bond on set he looks good.

    Agree about the haircut. It looks much better right now.

    So then...here, they say that Babs 'doesn't like' Hiddleston for the role :s And Craig is 'just about persuaded' to return.

    Enough click-bait, people.

    The silly Hiddleston slagging attributed to Barbara Broccoli sounds really fake.

    I agree with that.

    I just don't get how so many places are picking up what Page Six said, like they don't know it's not a reliable news source.

    That "unreliable source" Page Six just echoes what I've been told for months by people who should really know it :D

    These claims about what Barbara B may have said are usually followed by 'Barbara Broccoli was unavailable for comment' 8-)
  • ThunderpussyThunderpussy Behind you !Posts: 63,792MI6 Agent
    Can we even be sure Barbara said she was unavailable for comment :p

    Was at the movies today and saw two trailers of films starring Charlie Hunnam. I have to say, if DC doesn't return and Barbara Broccoli is still attached to the Craig- type for Bond IMO Hunnam would be perfect. Hunnam basically is a taller, younger (37), more classically handsome version of Craig without the overly weathered look. With the softest of re-boots (some vague references to past adventures, etc EON could slip Hunnam into the tux and not miss a beat). They could easily get 5 or 6 films out of the more youthful looking for his age Hunnam. Just my two cents worth.

    Hunnam is a black hole of charisma.

    Hunnam is a black hole of charisma.

    Maybe....I may have been looking at things a bit superficially. The trailers were for the new King Arthur film and The Lost City of Z. These trailers were some of the few times I've actually seen Hunnam acting in his actual British accent rather than playing an American (or Australian). In these trailers at least, especially in the Lost City of Z where he plays a WWI era British Army Officer he did convey good screen presence. I will admit that my previous impression of Hunnam, who is 100% British ironically was that he was a bit too "California Surfer Dude" looking for Bond but I think that has changed as he has matured a bit in looks. I still have Hiddleston as my number one choice if Craig does not return. I believe he has the ability to bring both the charm and the darkness of the role.

    EON couldn't use Warwick because they would be accused of copying Austin Powers :s

    The only thing that worries me is the threat of more Purvis & Wade.

    Purvis and Wade huh.. well I do hope Sony decide to bring back Martin Campbell. He did a fab job on Casino. This may offset any bad story line by Purvis and Wade.

    This is why I did not take the time to thoroughly read the beginning of the thread. Please forgive me...

    I googled him, I vaguely remember him in Downton Abbey. But I tell you what, he has the look! He looks like Bond.
