The New James Bond will be 28 years old
Filed under: Action, Classics, Casting, RumorMonger
Well, I guess this means Pierce Brosnan is officially not coming back.Screenwriter Paul Haggis, who is working on the Casino Royale screenplay, reportedly told The Hollywood Reporter that the 21st Bond film is going to break the mold: "We're trying to reinvent Bond," he said. "He's 28 - No Q, no gadgets." That would put the film somewhat in line with the novel it's based on. Casino Royale was the first Bond book by Ian Fleming, and in it, the agent was, according to the BBC, depicted as a "more youthful, realistic and cold character than the films."
So: cold, realistic, and 28. Any names come to mind?

Well, if they want to wait another couple of years, I'll qualify.

Ewan McGregor is the only answer to this question. They should sign a contract with one film every three years, giving Ewan the time he wants to do his other projects. I believe that was what was standing in the way of previous negotiations.

Bring back "Pierce Brosnan" - give him more money to resolves all that backlashes against him. Without the special effects on "Q" or all those terrific amazing awesome gadgets won't be any better than the last several years ago, starting from "Sean Connery" to "Roger Moore" & "Pierce Brosnan!" If they gonna start a new trend with out these equipments, the new bond role won't be exciting after all. Everybody always comes to see "Pierce Brosnan" - "Sean Connery" & "Roger Moore" with there amazing trick under there sleeves with all the brilliant task of making these bonds film with a greater with so many special effects that always bring us to the edges of our seats for the thrills of it! Now, they gonna take all those things away forever, until who knows when they will ever bring it back on screen; but we all wonder, are they doing this like "Star Wars Saga" - it was all perfect for "George Lucas" Star Wars telling his amazing terrific stories a long time ago .
We all want "Pierce Brosnan" back on screen to even out with "Sean Connery" life on screen as Bond that his legacy lives on and on. Pierce Brosnan is never too old to play the part for "James Bond" the secret British Agent! They don't know what they're talking about here, he's always been perfect for his role in "James Bond" - on his one liner and his video games with his voice and action beyonds to continues on and on. Other actors isn't mature for this role of "James Bond" - "Pierce Brosnan" always fits the best role of his character as best as he can do it, and he plays the part quite well for the ladies! Every women wants to meet and play "James Bond" girl on screen as the stories continues.
We all say, bring "Pierce Brosnan" back on screen play as "James Bond" fill in the blank of his mult-million dollars check to approve to continue to play that amazing british agent! We always say bring back "Pierce Brosnan" if they wanna see more money coming in the box office hits; but if they get a younger actor of age 28, it may not be as great as it sounds!
Hey "Pierce Brosnan" we all pulling and voting you to come back to play "James Bond" for another few years with more and more greatest role as the character plays on to be the amazing british agent!
We all wishes you "Pierce Brosnan" the best of luck, best wishes on your greatest journey to accomplish on your return as "James Bond!"
Sincerely yours,
Master Eddie
God Bless You "Pierce Brosnan" - all of us are behind you 100%.
PEACE
