Albert Finney dead

Gala Brand

I see that Albert Finney passed. He was a terrific actor, especially in the Sixties. He was part of the Burton-Connery-Caine-Harris-O'Toole generation of British actors who were born between 1925 and 1935. That only leaves Caine and Connery.

Finney's last role of an kind was as Kincaide, the game keeper, in Skyfall.

Number24

IMDB claims; "He had been considered for many roles in the James Bond franchise before being cast in Skyfall (2012)."
Is this true? if it is, do we know what roles he was considered for?

He was easily one of the most talented of his generation.

He's already being discussed here:
