Next Bond Unknown?

Posted 11:30 PM by Gerald So

According to Deadline, Denis Villeneueve is looking to cast a fresh-faced British actor in his 20s or 30s as the next James Bond.

I like casting an unknown. It brings to mind how special past Bond actor announcements felt. The only drawback is Amazon won't be able to market its first Bond movie on the actor's fame.

On a side note, I made the James Bond text logo in this post. Unlike EON's official 007 logo, it doesn't suggest a gun. Instead suggesting stealth, the red numbers hide in "BOND," camouflage his license to kill. The two zeros lie lengthwise to mimic an eight, so if you spot the seven, they seem part of a countdown.

With my own graphics made from free-for-personal- or free-for-commercial-use elements, my posts can be eye-catching and clear of official-image rights issues.

I also made a Superman text logo for my review of James Gunn's movie.

I personally thing they should reboot as a historical series beginning in the early 60s, or even as late as, say, 1958. I am glad to hear that James Bond will return!
