Idk who it would be. Initially I would’ve went with henry since he is vocal about wanting the role and almost had it in 05. But I think he’s too big of a “name” now and they normally like going with unknowns (relatively). Keeps the price down and keeps them in a contract longer etc.
I know tonally I want them to not do this serialized thing anymore although I think letting Bond progress as a character throughout the series flicks is a good idea.
I’d prefer they keep the tone of casino Royale, which was dark but never forgot to be a fun action flick. Since they’re not going to reboot from scratch, taking a Bond Year Two approach would be fun and getting him back to his spying/detecting roots.
