George Clooney
A few days ago my friend has told me that George Clooney would be a great Bond. 'He has style, apperance and sesne of humour, so why not?', he said. Well, I have to say that it could be interesting. And how do you think?

Well, I don't think he would be the worst choice... maybe the biggest minus is that he's not British. But he could probably do a neutral 'mid-Atlantic' accent like PB. He scores high in the good looks dept -- which would not be debatable "someone's ugly may be another's handsome"... action, looking good in a tux, etc, humor ... high points.
You move very well for a dead man, Mr Bond

Well, if you say so. But I don't think there is someone who would dare to make an unofficial Bond movie, and even if, it would be the best to put Brosnan as a Bond, and maybe Moore or Connery as M... But in official series Clooney is rather quite good choice I thinkFormerBondFan wrote:He'll be perfect as the next unofficial Bond.

You're right - he fits at the moment. But for how long? If you hired an actor to play Bond, you would like him to star in a couple of films. Wouldn't you?
And for me the only man who is (was) able to successfully play Bond in his late 50s was Roger Moore.
Frequent changes of actors should be avoided. The franchise needs stability, so Clooney, even hypothetically isn't the best choice.

True Clooney has the traits associated normally with Bond. But not being English is a deal killer for me.
Brings up an interesting question: around the world Bond's voice is dubbed in, does being English even matter for the rest of the world?
It does to me because of hearing his accent growing up.

I don't mind Clooney as an actor. His more recent stuff is better than the old crap he made.
But I'd have to place him in this topic as far as a possible James Bond goes.
