Matthew Goode
There is an interesting article on AICN about a film version of the Watchmen graphic novel.
Matthew Goode is mentioned for the role of Ozymandas. I think he would have made a great young Bond.
Also interesting is that Daniel Craig was connected with the role of Rorschach in the past. He would have been great in the role - and I'm not trying to be funny!!
Here is a picture of Rorschach.(I dont know who the man on the left is!).

I recall a few people suggesting this on AIC long before Craig was linked to Bond or especially well known. I think his weasel like character in Road To Perdition made people think he'd be a good Rorschach.

I sometimes wonder if it's because of roles like this that some have a hard time accepting Craig in the role of Bond. How many of the other actors who've played Bond have played villainous parts in films. Especially before they became Bond.James wrote:Oddjob wrote:Daniel Craig would suit Rorschach far better than James Bond.

Too me it shows what a good actor Daniel Craig is, but that's another story. And I know I'll most likely be cut down with anti-Craig comments because of my opinion above.
As for Matthew Goode, I'm not familiar with him, but on looks alone, I can see a young Bond there. I'd have to see him act before I gave him the official nod.

I think you have a point in stating that Daniel Craig was unBondlike in many of his other films because he was playing a role.
But, for me, just as he was not Bond material in Road to Perdition, The Trench, Tomb Raider etc, he was not Bond material when he starred as James Bond in a James Bond film.

Re: Matthew Goode
How about Matthew Goode now? He is in the watchman film, and is going to star in a Brideshead Revisited film soon.

Re: Matthew Goode
Matthew Goode is 30 (I think) and does indeed play Adrian 'Ozymandias' Veidt in the upcoming Watchmen film. I think I remember an article on MI6 from early 2005 where it suggested that he and Luke Mably were under consideration to play a young James Bond in Casino Royale.

Re: Matthew Goode
He does look a bit like Christian Bale.

I think Goode was a better candidate than Mably (pictured below)
