I'd like to see Hardy in the role, I just don't reckon he'd do it. I'm trying to think of any suave roles he's played?! He tends to prefer edgier, dark roles. Cavill is too buff, too pretty, but I preferred him in the Tudors rather than the Hollywood superhero look he's got now and I don't know that many women that fancy him. Norton is also too pretty and I don't think he could pull it off, even though he's a good actor - future Bond maybe. Hiddleston has kicked himself in the nuts because he's publicly lusted after it too long and then there was the Hiddleswift faux pas... Alba would be great, he has the body and the attitude and the huge female-fan following, but would they make a jump to a black Bond?! Edgy choice. Luke Evans would be fantastic - he's got enough of a CV to show his hard and soft edges and he's sexy as all hell. Turner could bring back a sense of the Connery Bond, dashing, cheeky and debonnaire but with a hint of something tragic and dark below the surface. I met Jamie Bell when he was 13 and (eek) whilst a fine actor, he's too short and fresh-faced. Fassbender isn't a bad choice, handsome in a slightly weird way, and suave, but I think, like Damian Lewis and Jamie Bell, he's in the list because there's not a lot of good choices out there at the moment.
