It's one of those things I can't even begin to wrap my head around. How does someone so perfect for a role not get it, especially when he was in his prime (which he still largely is)?
I'm genuinely baffled he hasn't been cast as Bond

Too buff
Too tall
On Her Midgesty's Secret Service
Too bald
Sean Connery wore a wig and he was the best
it literally was a different time
Get over it you fat b***h.
was Fleming's original drawing of Bond. Also I think every single Bond actor except Craig has worn a full or partial hairpiece.
too handsome
The martini glass kept slipping out of his hands
heh
bond is meant to be in his mid-late 40s so hes not even in prime bond years yet
He's 40....
is 40 in the mid or late 40s?
By the time filming is wrapped/released he'll be mid 40s.
Just shut the frick up already
Nolan directed Bond starring Cavill would be mega kino
Can Bond even exist in 2023? It's all about unapologetic Britishness and masculinity, that's not a thing in the modern mainstream.
>Nolan
Great movies but very dour, every attempt at humour feels uncomfortably forced.
I've been saying for years they should just keep them in the period.
Nolan's expertise is suspense
a twink could never be bond
He's a gamer.
Aren't we all
Just let Michael Caine play Bond, so he'll quit b***hing about having to retire.
>Oi, I'd even play a gay Bond if it meant me working legitimately again.
Sorry wrong pic
way too old
He's under 50, its fine
he'll be in his late 50s by the end of a new trilogy
not canon
He doesn't want to break his streak, he is on GODflop already.
could have been kino
He is relentlessly handsome no homo
Fassbender will only agree to be in it if they assure him everything about the movie aside from his performance will be dogshit.
That describes like 90% of Bond flicks, he should be a perfect fit.
ew
Assbender literally looks like he's dying from gay aids
>gay aids
that's redundant, anon.
I recommend at least watching the train scene. It's incredibly dishonest about what people could have possibly known and when they possibly could have known it about the Nazis. (You know, unless ~~*they*~~ did it and it isn't real. Based, Nolan. Based.)
Yeah, he was obviously an enormous security risk.
I'll be honest, I never doubted the existence of nuclear weapons until I watched this docudrama about a blatant shekelgrab disguised as research. I thought those people were crazy, but this whole program was clear graft. He even got his droupout brother a job. Maybe they actually managed to build a bomb that worked when they weren't busy looting the State Department and fricking coloured communist girls on their kosher military base in Santa Fe, but I am no longer entirely confident that nukes are real. (Based, Nolan. Based.)
He'd method act the drinking
too white
but he is irish
He's known for pushing back then a director isn't being faithful to the source material, and, well, it's 2023 and all, so it's going to be pozzed to shit. Why pick someone who will be a hassle and not go along with making Bond gay or incompetent
If it is indeed nolan directed, it will be minimally pozzed. There were like 2 nogs in Oppenheimer and none of them had lines iirc.
Could Bale do it?
That’d be interesting.
>Oppenheimer
>minimally pozzed
>train scene
>the really disgusting, fat, greasy, ratlike one starts his "oy vey, Oppenhimey, they US goyim are so antisemitic but we must build them our mega israelite bomb to stop the shoah that we know about somehow in the 1920s." routine
>"there is only one place in the whole world I can build the magic mega israelite bomb: my ranch in New Mexico. I will rent it to the US goyvernment at a very reasonable rate"
>muh McCarthy was wrong propaganda in 2023
>muh communism was harmless and wasn't a real threat
>muh woman scientists really built the bomb
>minimally pozzed
wow, i didnt see it, but thats hysterical, they did THAT much historical revisionism? really? i woulda assumed Nolan would be FAR to big a pussy to even approach the commie/McCarthy angle, but instead he just lets the klkes writing the script cook up a twilight zone rewrite huh?
What a hack kek.
My take away walking out of the cinema was that Oppenheimer was a communist using the US to fund his research.
I was amazed that people really thought the US did him wrong by taking his security clearance away when 2 thirds of the movie is about how he absolutely shouldn't have security clearance
>>muh McCarthy was wrong propaganda in 2023
>>muh communism was harmless and wasn't a real threat
Calm down, Cletus. Commies never dropped a nuke on nobody. It's funny how you rail about muh israelite because its counter to current policy but guzzle up every other piece of propaganda your trash government has created.
Communism doesn’t need a nuke. It’s directly killed ~100m by policy alone.
Which is peanuts compared to the people capitalism has killed and keeps killing today.
Ok glowBlack person.
Don’t @ me again until you pull your head out of your ass and stop listening the bullshit your black dyke college professor taught you in Black person studies 101.
I don't listen to Amerimutts. You're not human.
Well that explains why your a communist.
I just @ you again. What are you gonna do about it? Keep crying about the commie bogeyman.
Hold your tongue, you dick sucking milf. I will not hesitate to cream pie you instantly.
Just give it to Colin Firth, or can't they use him since he did Kingsman?
Excuse me but we already have a modern 007
Why are people so hellbent on her?
because she's black and a woman.
They really are going to look back at this period and wonder how we all lost our shit and put such vile creatures all over our media while hiding any actually hot girls
Bond movies are always a reflection of the time they were made in. We had Slapping Broads Bond, Blaxploitation Bond, Star Wars Bond, What If No More Cold War Bond and now Woke Bond. Dunno what's next, probably sexually ambigious Bond
The ass was FAT though
Because it's clearly going to be someone of colour OR a woman. She ticks both boxes.
>ugly hands, ugly teeth, ugly nose, ugly hair, ugly arms, ugly breasts, ugly waist, ugly dress
What was she thinking?
He’s bookies favourite …
Idris would make a great bond ngl
I’m guessing your wife has a black son
He'll just be Hobbs and Shaw character in a suit
maybe 15 +years ago
hes like 80 years old those days, and looks it
>hiring a spy
>"A 00 is someone who blends in to high society effortlessly. police pay him no mind because he is a man of class, character, and dignity. people feel at ease around him. they are free to relax. security does not look at such a man twice, he is of impeccable breeding and high status. why would he steal? he is the man who already has everything."
>mfw
He already said himself Bond should not be black
False.
He recused himself from consideration due to "racist's" ruining it for him
I want a black Bond so we can have an Indian Austin Powers.
I want a chinese florence nightingale so we can have a aborigine sherlock holmes
Too pretty.
Henry would be great and will only get better as he ages
do they ever cast someone already very famous and in many blockbusters ? it seems like it would cost them a lot more money than casting a still somewhat unknown actor
Moore was fairly well known already, albeit for TV rather than movies. Dalton was primarily a stage actor, but had appeared in several high-profile films, including supporting roles in The Lion in Winter and Flash Gordon, and the male lead in Wuthering Heights. Brosnan had had a popular TV series (Remington Steele) and was coming off of a prominent supporting role in Mrs. Doubtfire.
Roger Moore and Daniel Craig were both big actors already.
>will nevrt be Superman again
>will never be bond
>will never be in the Witcher again
>will never play an icon role agai.
>dead career
>tiny hands
>closeted gay
>the China incident will get leaked soon
It’s over
Get over it you fat b***h.
>China incident
qrd?
having a russian looking bond was genius. too bad none of the movies take place in russia and he never pretends to be russian
He's going to be Quint in a prequel to Jaws.

The producers want to keep on making Bond movies without actually having James Bond in them.
>The producers want to keep on making ____ movies without actually having ____ in them.
That sentence pretty much sums up modern franchise film making
I thought Tom Hiddleston could do it until he went down the Disney route and then started balding too.
Henry Cavill deserves the role. He is even British which is even more fitting.
>I'm baffled an uncharismatic, mediocre has-been hasn't been cast as Bond
Seriously, OP?
He's an is-is still and you're a never-was
>He's an is-is
Sure, thats why he's on so many leading roles in the last years.
Oh wait.
>I'm genuinely baffled how an american hasn't been cast in an iconically British role
brainlet
He's from Jersey anon, not New Jersey.
If you can’t see why he wouldn’t be a good fit you’re hopeless
He suffered from being the too obvious choice. Having the tall, handsome english gentleman charecter be played by a tall, handsome english gentleman would be simple for Hollywood. They want someone unconventionally attractive, and a total subversion of expectations. Daniel Craig was the last person anyone expected to play Bond because he was skinny and ugly before he beefed up.
He's an incel
He’s a volcel if anything. You’re just mad that you’ll never frick him and he doesn’t let women ruin things he cares about.
There's no such a thing as a volcel. There's getting pussy and then there's coping from the inability.
Though I do thing Cavill gets some. It's just that it's bussy.
Yes there is, like a monk or something?
>monks
>celibate
Anon...
Yeah like a sensei or whatever like master splinter from TMNT? And that one from kill bill? Don’t they hate women?
TMNT and Kill Bill are not real, mouthbreather.
You don’t think it’s possible for there to exist someone that can frick but doesn’t want to? Out of 6b+ people in the world and all the LGBTHIV+ people, there’s someone who doesn’t frick but could?
That's right. Fricking is a natural desire. It's like breathing. "Not wanting" is just to justify an inability. Literally a cope.
yup, same with money.
Apologize.
He truly was the best of us.
Me on the left
Too white
Cast Henry and make it a time period of the 50s or 60s. This allow them to kind of rewind back on Gadgets. Be able to bring back a lot of the sexism and masculinity. I wanna watch a movie that smells like leather and cigars.
He isn’t English.
Neither am i
Cavill was born in great britain, and bond is scottish.
Cavill was not born in Britain.
The chanel islands are UK and it's people british citizens. The islands are visible from GB's coast.
The channel islands are not part of the UK.
I find him extremely uncharismatic. I don't know what it is about him.
Because he's a total charisma vacuum and so far Guy Richie is the only director who's managed to wrangle a decent performance out of him.
Isn't the crazy b***h currently in charge of James Bond insufferable?
Like why would Henry even bother?
All he wants to do is paint plastic figurines, shitpost on Cinemaphile why total war became shit, laugh at some toothless wow streamer, maybe play wow classic hardcore after lifting and then having a good wank to some booru shit he hasn't seen in ages since his nerves are fried from too much degenerate e-girl porn.
Also amazon paid him money to make a Warhammer tv series. So he'll buy a second phone, film himself painting a stupidly expensive forgeworld figurine and tell stories about the grim and dark future. Series will get the most views on prime, atleast 10x the amount of RoP.
He's too bulky and baby faced for Bond. Bond is handsome, but in a rugged, cold kind of way. Pierce Brosnan was almost a little too much like a pretty boy. Bond is supposed to be an ex naval officer in his mid thirties, who smokes, boozes, and lies and kills for his profession. Cavill has no edge. Pic related is Bond's literary counterpart. Connery, Dalton, Brosnan, hell, even Craig, have an air of this man (dangerous, cold, ruthless, debonair). Cavill is bland.
James Bond is also supposed to be the most boring, plain man who ever lived, per the books
The idea of Bond was that he was supposed to be a boring man to whom interesting things happened. As the books advanced, he became more of an interesting character, as Fleming began inserting all his war buddies and contemporaries with interesting stories into the character, as his own. He was a chain smoking, borderline alcoholic naval commander who's living involved murder. He had plenty of casual sex with broken, damaged women because he himself was broken and damaged. A main facet of his character is that he knows he will die soon due to the nature of his trade and therefore enjoys the best meals, smokes his favorite cigarettes, has sex with beautiful women, because he's going to die. He doesn't consider himself a good person either- he's a blunt instrument used by the British government- that was Fleming's intention. Cavill doesn't have the depth, edge and danger to interpret that. Whilst 'funnier' Bond's like Moore and Brosnan did look like pretty boys, they are able to pull off cold and uncaring very well in pivotal moments. I don't see Cavill doing that. He was great for Superman, but was underused. But he's not Bond.
>he will die soon due to the nature of his trade and therefore enjoys the best meals, smokes his favorite cigarettes, has sex with beautiful women
hadn't thought of it that way before.
doing it as a sort of beginning but not origin story would be quite a good watch. boring guy and you see him progress and his tastes expand as he cares less and seeks to enjoy more, asking people in casinos about foods or the best wines, picking up knowledge.
would be more of a biopic with a main story developing in pieces along the background. Intel from older missions later connecting and ending up as the main villain a couple of years in.
they should make him a lively lairy wienerney geezer wearing a tracksuit and smoking a vape with a frickwit cap on his head who introduced himself as "aawwite mate! cor blimey int arf fakkin cauuwd ere lmfao"
make him 5'6 and a with pierced eyebrow
0 charisma
too male, too white
At least he's gay.
>tfw no UNCLE sequel because it bombed and Armie Hammer is a cannibal
hes an incel chud and bond didnt hate women
He probably already got the role. Might be an announcement in January. It's probably part of the warhammer 40k deal.
I know he's super handsome but he just doesn't have Bond energy imo. I'd go with someone rougher and funnier.
I think he'll be fine with the right director and well written script.
Mike hoare convincing cavill deciding to start up a mercenary commando
does acting play any part?
not exactly Henry's strength
I'm beginning to think maybe it should be Idris Elba, because he is a genuine Bond fan and maybe can keep "woke" to a minimum.
Idris would be great but either way it would be more about him being black than a phenomenal actor.
>Tiny hands
>Bald
>Zero charisma
Not bond
Cavill isn't roguish enough, you think Bond and you think a guy who's not above playing dirty to win. He just doesn't have that right amount of sleaze.
Reminds of tards who thought that Michael Keaton was a bad choice to play Batman.
Bond's true purpose isn't to spy but to sell over-priced watches and expensive cars to men who want to be him. If it's a negress this is all thrown out of the window but if it's "literally me" this works like a charm.
he's a charisma vacuum
He is such a problematic gamer dude bro, he can’t be in the same room as a woman without doing a meetoo on her. Sorry chud but your alt right manlove can’t be casted as a mainstream character ever again.
They already said they are looking for an actor in his 30's. Cavill is too old and he is too famous. Historically they have never cast a superstar for the Bond part, they want Bond to be the role that launches the actor to worldwide fame. Henry already was Superman and Witcher is a pretty big IP too.
And no, Saint or Remington Steele aren't fricking comparable to playing Superman.
>too famous
Witcher was always a niche show with a small viewership and Cavill last played Superman in what, 2017? 2020 if you count the re-release.
He hasn't been in a major role in years, only playing villains (Mission Impossible) or second fiddle (Enola Holmes).
He's just not leading man material.
The architect was already a superstar, Roger Moore was too.
Charisma of a wet towel
Can't really act.
