Favorite Bond Movie: The Dark Knight Trilogy, Mission: Impossible, Kingsman: The Secret Service and The November Man or any upcoming actioners starring Pierce Brosnan (no, it's not James Bond which is good since it will help him expand his reputation as an actor especially in the action realm)

In a Bond film? Absolutely not! The fanboys are always talking about bringing back former Bond actors as villains, and I think its a terrible idea.

I could see him playing a villain in a non-Bond film, though. He was very good in The Matador. His character wasn't an outright villain, but you wouldn't take him home to meet your mother.

Actually, I think Craig would have made a decent Le Chiffre up against a young Bond for CR.

Oh wait, I only just noticed that this was posted in the Doctor Who forum, so I assume you meant Pierce as a DW villain. My bad.

Is it too late for Pierce to go against Tennant before Matt Smith takes over?

Yes. Tennant's last episode goes out on Friday.
