1. Henry Cavill
2. Michael Fassbender
3. Christian Bale
4. Aidan Turner
5. Damien Moloney
Good list I like it. If age and availability weren't a issue my top 5 would be
1.) Clive Owen
2.) Michael Fassenbender
3.) Henry Cavill
4.) Aiden Turner/Cullen...again to similiar to seperate
5.) Rupert Friend

I think Owen has the look, but is a little bit "blue collar" for Bond, IMO. He'd need someone to play Terence Young to his Sean Connery.

I can see that. I actually think Owen's Bond would have been a lot like Craig's or Dalton's...I know blasphemy around here but being honest.

:007:
Is that five in no particular order or is that how you rank them in order of preferance? Also, how'd you rank those five based on the James Bond look alone? Id rank them based on looks alone

1.) Tie Turner and Cullen. They look alike to me can't rank one over the other.
3.) Friend. Maybe it's the black hair but I got him next
4.) Dan Stevens
5.) Riley-outta those mentioned he's the one that needs the most work tan workout etc..
Its my rank. :007:

SO WHAT this picture of Craig http://theincrediblesuit.blogspot.com/2 ... ealed.html scares The Living Daylights outta me.

I can see a little Dalton there. Reminds me of Clive Owen in Gosford Park as well http://www.imdb.com/media/rm2807142656/tt0280707

Oliver-Jackson Cohen is extremly James Bondish in Faster with The Rock.

I didn't know who he was so I googled him. Looks likes a cross between Henry Cavill and Cillian Murphy. Looks more like a potential Bond in pics with short hair. Based on looks alone with the right hair style and Daniel Craig's nutrionalist and trainer on speed dial I could see it with a lot of right. He's in the Sam Riley category for me he doesn't jump out at me as Bond. He'd need the Daniel Craig James Bond starter kit for sure.

There I can see him as Bond after the Daniel Craig James Bond starter kit.

Incidentally, in another thread, I had posted a YouTube clip from the episode of Being Human that first made me think of Damien Molony (not Moloney, it seems I've been spelling his name wrong) as a potential Bond. It was a flashback to 1955, with very Conneryesque costume design, complete with hat. Unfortunately, it appears to have been taken down, presumably for copyright reasons, and I have been unable to find the clip elsewhere, so you'll have to make do with a still:
