Imagine how cool it is if Daniel Craig and Clive Owen star in an all-awesome action film! It'll be just like De Niro & Pacino all over again! Imagine them in a Tarantino Mexican standoff, pointing guns at each other, or like in Heat where they were together sitting on a table talking. How awesome would that be?

It might be interesting. In fact, if Owen does play Philip Marlowe in a couple of films, I wouldn't mind seeing Craig in one of the films (that's being optimistic that they even make more than one of them), possibly as the villain. Craig could do that 'hard-boiled' style pretty well - somewhat like Road to Perdition.

No! Owen's one of those overhyped, overrated actors.

I used to think Owen was overrated but I thought he was great in Closer and Children of Men.

I'd certainly pay to see them on screen together!

Why, so one of the most charismatic, camera loving and astute actors around can carry Clive Owen?

it would be a smart match to have both Daniel and Clive in the same movie. Clive has definitely grown on me in the past couple of years. And after seeing him in Children of Men, I'm digging him very much.

I say Bring it! Let them work together.

How about we get Sean and Roger in a film together, before either passes, then we'll worry about Owen & Craig?

Wasn't "Bullseye!" originally supposed to star them? I know Cannon Pictures claimed they had signed them to star in a movie together, but neither of them claimed any knowledge of this.

Maybe we can have the sequel to the Inside Man (yes, it is in the works) with Sean as Clive's father and Roger and his son Daniel as the baddies :cooltongue:

I personally find Clive Owen a very overrated actor. He's not a bad actor by any means, and he's been in some great movies and had some good roles, but in general I think he's made out to be a better actor than he is. Most of the movies I've seen with him he seems to use little or no expression.

Daniel Craig... Clive Owen...

Maybe they can be a tag team in the rumoured Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World sequel. :cooltongue:

On second thought, I'd pay good money to see that.

Back in the 70's I thought it would be great to see Sean, Roger and Michael Caine in a remake of Gunga Din.

I'm not quite sure I'd put Clive Owen in the bracket of De Niro or Pacino. He's still yet to convince me he can even act, let alone do it well.

There was an inevitibility about HEAT's pairing of the two legends. I'm not so sure that is the case with Craig and Owen.

Oooo, that would have been awesome! Have you seen "The Man Who Would Be King"? I thought it was great (but it would have been better with the Moore!)

I think that Craig should portray Connery's son. Both have the same sexy lips.

Have you seen Children of Men. Clive's acting in that movie impressed me quite a bit.
