James D'Arcy.

Post by Daltonite Toothpaste »

My choice to replace James Purefoy as Bond. :D James D'Arcy b.1975...

And here's a pic of D'Arcy in Age Of Heroes playing some fella called.... oh what was his name.... ah, that's it.... Ian Fleming:

I have not seen the film yet, and I don't know about anyone else, but that pic of D'Arcy as Fleming just screams Bond to me.

He could possibly be a good choice to play Bond. Of course, there is that little problem concerning Barbara's crazy infatuation with Craig..... :x

Could be a good choice. I'd have to watch Age of Heroes to form an opinion.

I've seen him in a few films, and I think he could do it. :martini:

He stands at 6'3". That alone should be a foot (or 6 :wink: ) in the door.

At the current rate of 1 Bond every 3 years, and depending on when Broccoli let's Craig go, then yes. But if the role were vacant now, and the films were released every 2 years, D'Arcy would be the right age to start. During his 4th film, he would be only 46. That would leave the possibility for a final 5th film.
