Should be considered for next James Bond


Not now, but in 5-7 years, when Daniel Craig is done with the part, I could see the Bond producers wanting to reboot the character from the start with a younger actor.

I could imagine Jamie Bell in the role if they reboot Bond as an origin story, focusing on his training and transition from military special forces to spy. He'll be late 20s/early 30s at that time.

Act 1 would be seeing Bond as a war hero, perhaps in the middle east. Act 2 would focus on his training in MI6. Act 3 would be his first field assignment, culminating in his commission as a Double-O.

I love Craig as Bond, but I also like Jamie Bell because physically he's very distinct. He's lanky and nimble where Craig's brutish and a bit stocky.

Yeah, because in today's age of cinematic effects that's something that can't be adjusted. Come to think of it, that's also the reason Tom Cruise failed to become a bankable action star...he's too short.

Oh wait...

Jamie Bell is no Tom Cruise.

why you say Hoult is better? because he's taller? Jamie is far superior actor than Nicholas!
