    Tom Hardy is even money ?
    I'd prefer Aidan Turner or Tom Huddleston. :)

    I really like Hardy but I guess it might be Craig MK II with him? People say DC is too "Thuggish" I would say Hardy is similar or another level

    Damien Lewis - think that might go down like a lead balloon, just on looks

    Cavill - looks the part but guess Q's on his acting and his CV

    Turner - not really familiar with him, looks wise prob better then most on that list!!

    No mention of Fassbender - would prefer him over a lot of these

    Only my opinion but Elba and Fassbender are now too old. Fassbender would have
    Been my choice. -{

    I think Hueghan has a very good look for Bond. His young looks means he has many years in him as 007 in spite of being 35. :007)

    These articles are just chasing their own tails at this point.

    Aidan Turner looks too much like Brosnan.

    Really? I think they have a really different look! I would say Henry Cavill has much more of a Brosnan look! (Or Timothy Dalton for that matter!) Turner has dark eyes, so to me he's leaning more towards a young Connery look!

    I think the boat has sailed for Cavill, just can't see him ever playing 007. I like
    Turner, he has the looks and can act, he's also considered "sexy" ( He won an
    award for taking his shirt off in Poldark) so he ticks all the boxes.
    Although luckily we're spoilt for choice, but EON could throw us all for six.......
    ........ By announcing a total unknown, who we'll all have to Google. :D

    I agree! An inside source even told me EON might just be going with an entirerly unknown guy, some "Jeroen van den Brom" (However the hell you pronounce that name...)

    Hardy is a terrific actor, but again like Craig as the Guardian pointed out " is a character actor promoted to leading man' To reapropriate Hobbies, like life in an unregulated state of nature, he would be "nasty, brutish and short'

    Ha, putting them in similar poses doesn't really increase their resemblance for me. Something about the way Turner's eyes are set. He just looks like Brosnan's nephew to me.

    But the brown eyes though! It's very Connery like! I also think the overall head structure is more of a resemblence to Connery than Brosnan. Still though, in a way most of the Bond actors have lots of similarities anyway!

    That looks Bondian enough! Except I'd recommend replacing the black studs. What you should replace them with depends on what type of front the shirt has.

    If you are willing to go non-British or non-UK, Nikolaj Coster-Waldau from "Game of Thrones" would be perfect if he was about 10 years younger....does a convincing Brit accent too (at least to my American ears). Another somewhat off the wall, slightly out of the box choice would be American actor Zach McGowan who plays Capatain Charles Vane on "Black Sails". He's the right age and with a proper Bond haircut would have the right "look". As far as his accent is concerned, he plays Capt Vane with a British accent and was so convincing in his interview and audition for the part that the producers actually thought he was British.

    A non British actor playing James bond?? Pah! Next you'll be telling us Blofeld is bonds brother! :D

    I don't care about the next actor so much as getting a reboot right from the start. And it should be rebooted if Spectre is Daniel Craig's final film. Casino Royale was good but small details and characters that should have been there from the start were missing.

    Well I only said I was 'kind of hurted' :P - It's all alright now! Of course I can honestly understand why Enjoying Death stated it, probably not aware it was actually just a fellow Bond fan posting a picture of himself (Or perfectly aware and just eager to shut up a young schmuck on these forums who's even wearing an all wrong winged dinnershirt instead of a proper one! :)) )

    As Far as I'm concerned you should wear what works for you. We all have our own
    style. If you like a winged collar, then go for it, who knows maybe people will start
    copying you. :D
    Although I do agree I think they were just teasing, one of the reasons I don't put up
    a photo of myself, is that I'm soooooooooooooo good looking, I couldn't put up with
    all the teasing from "The Norms" , that's what us beautuful people call ordinary folk. :))
