Cast for Bond 23?

bensten · October 2011

Has there been a actual cast list yet or are all these things im hearing just rumors? If anyone knows i would apreciate it.

Hardyboy · October 2011

Javier Bardem has confirmed he's playing the villain; beyond that, it's pretty well been rumors.

I think the major missing part of the cast right now is the fact that Shanghai is a location and not a single asian has been cast.

I expect they have, and I think you could find a dozen examples of that through the Bond films' history. Any Afgans, Czechs or Russians in Living Daylights?

Helen McCrory and Ola Rapace to join the cast of Skyfall.

Lord Voldemor and Narcissa Malfoy? Hope Bond paid attention in his defense against the dark arts class.

Ola Rapace looks way more like Bond than old man Dan but then again so does Fiennes.

Craig is Bond now - deal with it!

This is one of the reasons why I don´t post here very often, let alone post an opinion on something. I don´t feel like putting IMHO after every word I typ.

Czechs, Russians and even Afghans can be played by ethnic Europeans. Chinese people have to be played by someone from south-east Asia.

These are excellent choices, and surprised so few comments on them...

As the excellent (and seemingly always 2-3 steps ahead of "local" sites) jamesbondbrazil speculates, mccrory could be playing money penny...

Hello Helen McCrory and integrate Raptor cast of "007 - SkyFall." Two new names join the cast of 007 - SkyFall. The information was confirmed by the Official Twitter of 007 last night. As the saying goes: "Where there's smoke there's fire", and in the case of Bond 23, now officially 007 - SkyFall was no different. Several rumors published during the year were confirmed during the press conference of the film and said producer Michael G. Wilson: "The worst kept secret in London." Both names had been mentioned in September and October this year. The English actress Helen McCrory, best known for having played the witch Narcissa Malfoy in "Harry Potter", has also starred opposite Daniel Craig in movies such as "Reflections Of Innocence" and "Forever Love". But the Swedish actor Hello Raptor, 39, is well known in Sweden for his role in the TV series "Tusenbröder." Outside the country, he starred in the movie "Together", won several awards in international film festivals. His roles in the film were not disclosed, but there is already speculation that Helen McCrory to play Moneypenny. Directed by Sam Mendes (Oscar winner for "American Beauty") and scripted by Neal Purvis, Robert Wade and John Logan ("Gladiator"), 007 - SkyFall is scheduled for official launch on 26 October 2012 in England and from November 09 in the world. In Brazil, according to the official website of the film, the film will be released on November 2. █

They could do that in the 60`s (Breakfast in Tiffany`s, not to mention YOLT!) But today it would be considered extremely bad taste.

It`s strange that so few of us have linked Helen McCrory to the role of Miss Moneypenny. I sure haven`t. She is closer to a traditional Moneypenny than Naomi Harries, both in appearance and age. I would like to see McCrory as Moneypenny and Whinshaw as Q, let`s see what happens!

Cast for Bond 23?
