I agree about Julian, but am not convinced about Eric Bana. I even think Clive's seen a good bump.
Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
How about Guy Pierce?
I think he's too blonde and feral for Bond (who is slick and dark-haired). But he's yummy, so I could be sold on him.
Feral, I'll grant you. NSM the too blond though.
Okay, that picture made it much easier for me to see him in the part. I think I've only seen him in Memento.
Jackman said in a recent EW that "while growing up, that was the role I wanted to play. I'm not going to compare it to Hamlet, but in a way it's the same thing. You want to put your stamp on it." So maybe he would take it -- I could see him in the role. I don't think he'd get typecast, either, for the simple reason that he has done high-profile projects (most notably Wolverine in X-Men) that are pretty different from Bond (and he's continuing on with that franchise as well). I dunno.
Lyra, you didn't see LA Confidential? Love that movie.
Lyra, you didn't see LA Confidential?
I did, but I have no memory of it other than that it was really well-done, visually, and that Kim Basinger was stunning. I couldn't tell you who the actors in it were without checking IMDB.
Guy Pierce was SO 3rd Season Buffy-era Wesley in that, only with mobsters instead of vampires.
You're not wrong, Matt. I saw he was a little hottie under that doofus exterior...
