From the article:
Yes, Flint would definitely be a fresh new take on spies, one for the new generation. An agent you can’t recruit, he is submerged in his work and pleasures.
And that's why you can't make Flint today... because in this day and age, even Bond has been humanized and has been given - some quite pronounced - weaknesses.
They closest they have come to this is Vin Diesel's "xXx" but that felt stale already back then. I suppose Tony Stark in the Marvel's franchise is as close as you're gonna get because to pull off something larger than Bond you have to venture into super hero territory.
