Dream castings for Bond films

[Jamesdude]

Just out of curiosity, have any of you guys ever had dream castings for Bond characters or Bond movies in particular?

Lately ive been thinking that Arnold Schwarzenegger would be a great choice as Auric Goldfinger since he is around the right age and shape for the role this time around, a freind of mine mentioned Dwayne Johnson as Jaws.

[Kristatos]

I think Gert Frobe and Richard Kiel were fine. I wouldn't replace them with anyone. There are certain roles I think were miscast, such as Christmas Jones and, since 2006, James Bond, but I don't have any one specific candidate to replace them.

Arnie would have been a great Jaws in the 80s.

[Kristatos]

Karen Gillan as Moneypenny?

That druggie mayor of Toronto sooooo looks like Goldfinger. I think Gerard Depardieu would be a good Goldfinger too. Any actress in Hollywood would have done better than Tanya Roberts too, yuck!

[John P. Drake]

Clive Owen as James Bond
Elizabeth Hurley as the Bond Girl
Gerard Butler as Felix Leiter
Lambert Wilson as a Blofeld-like villain
David Tennant as Q
Anthony Hopkins as M

[Jamesdude]

Fransisco Scarmanga - Antonio Banderas
Dr Kananga/Mr Big - Forrest Whittaker
Sgt JW Pepper - Will Farrell
Max Zorin - Jeremy Irons
Kamal Khan - Bill Nighty

Forrest Whittaker would be the man as Mr. Big. He looks exactly how the novel describes him.

Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Tee-Hee
Djimon Hounsou as Quarrel
Marion Cotillard as Solitaire
Mark Strong as Emilo Largo

[Jamesdude]

Scratch my earlier choice for Sgt pepper, I think John C Riley would be a perfect choice to play him.

A few actors ive always thought would have been great as Bond : Raul Julia,Laurence Olivier,Sam Neil.

Wint and Kidd - Bill Murray and Dan Ackroyd

[John P. Drake]

Clint Eastwood for Felix Leiter? Imagine that.

[Jamesdude]

Rutger Hauer as Necros.
Tadanobu Asano as Doctor No (Watch his performance as Kira in 47 Ronin)
Michael Fassbender or Dominic West as Red Grant

[Kiwichris]

Christian Coulson (young Tom Riddle from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets) as Gustav Graves.

[John P. Drake]

Lewis Collins as James Bond in the 1980s.

[Kiwichris]

I could see Pam Ferris as Irma Bunt.

[John P. Drake]

Probably Lambert Wilson as a sophisticated Blofeld?

[Kiwichris]

Diane Kruger as Honey Ryder
Matt Lucas as Slugsy
I actually think Daniel Craig would have been a good Red Grant

[John P. Drake]

I actually think Daniel Craig would have been a good Red Grant

He's often referred to as the love fruit of Red Grant and Rosa Klebb. Lol.

[Kiwichris]

Felicity Jones as Plenty O'Toole

[Daltonite Toothpaste]

Felicity Jones as Plenty O'Toole

I like her, but I can't picture Jones in a Bond.

[Kristatos]

Felicity Jones as Plenty O'Toole

I like her, but I can't picture Jones in a Bond.

Or vice versa (sorry, couldn't resist).
