Anyone want to see Alec return in the future films?


I am curious if you guys would like to see the return of Alec in the Craig series. I always wanted to see more backstory between Bond and Treveylen and see their more of their relationship. We seen characters like Felix and Tanner pop up in the series and even the new series included those characters so why not explore a orgin story with James and Alec. We don't have to see a remake of Goldeneye but just see a more darker version of Bond to match Bond himself. I kinda would like to see the next movie where Bond is helped by Alec and we can see Bond be more merciful while Alec seems to be more brutal. Reboot their relationship with the new series and I don't know what the future holds for Craig I am assuming the Bond series will take a different turn so just take Alec out so we don't have a full remake of Goldeneye in the post Craig Bond's. I just think it would be interesting and neat if they did explore them more.

I would, except that the only actor I could EVER see playing Trevelyan is Sean Bean...

I don?t. It's already been done, and as great a villain Trevelyan was, it's not really necessary for us to see any backstory. If you remember, in Skyfall Bond faces Silva who is a former MI6 agent. Silva and Trevelyan don't have the same story or relationship with James, but I'm done with seeing former MI6 agents-turned-villains. Bringing Trevelyan back now in any capacity would be overkill.

Let Craig's Bond face some crazy supervillains and henchmen, that's what he needs most right now. Hopefully Spectre delivers on that.

Well, Alec being in other Bond movies would be a problem since he's DEAD!

Felix lost an eye and a leg but he seems OK now

You have a point.And come to think about it, Joe Don Baker died in TLD, but then shows up (as a CIA agent, no less) in GE and TND. Theoretically, anything can happen.

Laugh while you can. Monkey Boy!

Did you watch this movie? He's dead. Like super super dead. You only eat the tip of a giant satellite once in a fiery crash after you fell from said device after having the *beep* kicked out of you. Frankly I'm surprised he was even alive for the scream.

On the other hand, I will pay whatever writer 5 bucks to come up with an even remotely possible plot where he made it out alive. It's likely to involve a lot of weed to watch and probably like 'haha guys just kidding' as the plot point. Maybe he could reverse the Bean role and survive once. But then he'd just die in the next movie because Sean Bean means you have to die in epic fashions.
