Not that I really care, but I just finished a rewatch of tenet and thought he might be a good fit. Loved him in the lighthouse and good time. Haven’t seen his Batman movie though.

    Being pigeon holed.

    Staying Bond-fit for 15 years.

    Declining majority of other projects for the length of tenure as Bond.

    Dealing with “fans” who want the character to remain unchanged from the racist and sexist 1960s version.

    Dealing with fans in general after 15 years being the face of one of the most recognizable franchises in western film.

    Craig specifically had some really nasty body shaming comments slung his way for being too small, too short, not handsome enough, blah de blah.

    “Boo hoo, he made millions per movie”. Yes, and he’s vocally ready to make millions from other projects that he finds more in line with his current interests.

      Oh I see what you mean. Amazon owns James Bond now and I think they spent a pretty penny on it, so we might get a bunch of spin offs without that… But we’re definitely still getting a regular Bond.
