Did anybody remember Toby Stephens for his supervillain role on 007's DIE ANOTHER DAY back in 2002? He's unrecognizable today. Still he's doing a stellar job on BLACK SAILS, one of my fav cable shows. That makes me a fan of his.
shareDid you know that he has been playing Bond for BBC Radio 4 in an number of productions based on the novels. They feature an impressive list of actors working on them. David Suchet as Dr No, Ian McKellan as Goldfinger, Alfred Molina as Blofled, Eileen Aitkens as Rosa Kleb and playing Pussy Galore none other than Rosamund Pike.
shareGood he's working well, although Die another Day isn't quite as unwatchable as some would suggest... although his character was supposed to be unpleasant, some of the lines he had to speak were pretty cringey... had he been a lesser actor, it might have been the last we'd seen of him...
