Russell Brand in the next James Bond Movie?

Post by Blowfeld »

Russell Brand is looking to expand his horizons and seek out new and exciting movie roles. Russell Brand wants to be in the next James Bond film.

"I could be the villain. I could be a psychopathic transvestite but I wouldn't want to contribute to negative stereotypes against transvestites. So maybe a sympathic (sic) one"

I think that Russell Brand could play a great villain in a James Bond movie. He has the creepy sadistic look about him that would make him the perfect actor to fill that role. I'm sure that they could come up with a better villain than a psychopathic or sympathic transvestite but that is neither here nor there.

Russell Brand hasn't exactly been cast in any spectacular roles and perhaps a James bond movie could help his career. His latest movie, "Get Him to the Greek", is about as bad as a movie can be. Perhaps it would be to his benefit to try to do some serious acting. I know that he is a comedian but that doesn't mean he can't expand his horizons and try to do something better.

Some free advice to Russell Brand; update your resume and send it to the creators of James Bond. I think you may be onto something here.

When I saw the headline, my first thought was "Oh f**k off Spynovelfan". But this wasn't even a real rumour, it was Brand saying (allegedly) that he wants to be in the next Bond film. File it next to Robbie Williams.
