Elias Koteas - the next Bond


It's very surprising, but my brother in law works very closely with Eon Productions and MGM, and he has it on more than good authority that the next Bond is Elias Koteas. Though a surprising choice, it does make sense. He's a magnetic star that looks great with a suit and a pistol. I can't wait to see Elias Koteas sipping martinis (always shaken, not stirred) and shagging dames.

I don't know how much info a janitor at Eon productions would be exposed to. Probably not casting decisions unless he had his ear pressed up against the door?

Casey Jones as Bond? I'm down....

Please stop.

He's 55 years old currently, by the time the movie will be made he will most likely be 57/58.... he will never be bond.

You are obviously in for the shock of your lifetime.

Why cast a canadian as a BRITISH spy? That would be like casting Miley Cyrus as James Bond. Ridiculous. Elias also isn't that great of an actor, period. If they have an almost 60 year old prancing around doing the *beep* that Brosnan and Craig did, I'll give you a handy.

How about Josh Duhamel? Anybody like this guy for Bond?

reply

Not going to happen, he's 55, Canadian/Greek, bald, (although Connery wore a piece), doesn't have the right look, even when he was younger.

reply

Who's Elias Koteas? Is he black?

reply

Lol that would be a bizarre choice. He was great in Exotica though.

Paul Rubens has a better shot at being being Bond.

Not many friends, do you?
