  • The Men Who Won't Be Bond

    Pierce Brosnan has commented again on losing the role of James Bond. According to The World Entertainment News Network, Brosnan felt "gutted" when contract negotiations with Eon Productions broke down. "When they told me, I was angry and the conversation was pretty short and sweet. They invited me back, and they changed their minds half-way through negotiations," said Brosnan. "It's hard to find the truth. If you get uptight it just does your head in so you've got to let it go. I thought they did me a favor, really...leave while you're on top."

    Brosnan recently told the press he favored Colin Farrell as his successor but the Alexander star is having none of that, advising Latino Review that Brosnan "just shot that out. It's great to think that he has that much faith in me but I have no idea. I haven't heard a thing about it except for Pierce and I don't think they're listening to him for casting."

    Another rumored Bond candidate, Fantastic Four heavy Julian McMahon, is out of the running now, too. His mother informed The Herald Sun that McMahon "had to decline the offer, having recently signed a long-term deal with his hit TV drama series Nip/Tuck."

    Thanks to Dark Horizons for the heads-up on the Farrell and McMahon items.

    One younger star who is definitely interested in playing 007 is Hugh Jackman. Moviehole points out a bit from Female First wherein Jackman confirmed that "there is something very secretive about the way they cast that role. ... I've never had an official call asking: 'Are you interested or not?' But there's no guy I know who wouldn't want that role – and that includes me. Anyone who says otherwise is lying."

    I don't know but Brosnan was a good James Bond. An I believe he still can be. Goldeneye was just the beginning for the 90's now it's the future. If I could vote, it would be Pierce Brosnan again. Whenever I think of the James Bond movies thats the only guy I can picture besides Sean Connery & the others ones. I say you go with Pierce on this one.
