I would personally like to see Hugo Weaving play as an ememy of Bond. Wait, I can almost hear it. I hear him saying "Mr. Bond" in that matrix agent voice already. (Laughs out loud) But in all seriousness, I have liked a lot of his recent work as Agent smith and Elrond, so I think he would be a good choice

He'd have done all the major franchises then... altho not SW? Go Hugo, altho I recon he'd be OTT as a Bond villain.

My grade seven teacher could be a great Bond villian, that's just because I hate him! :)

Might be the case for the villains in the new literary Bond series. :)

In today's Metro (free newspaper)

"Ex-Baywatch star and soon-to-be rapper David Hasselhoff is wondering why he has not been offered a role in a Bond film, or even better,the chance to sing the theme tune. 'I like the idea of being a Bond baddie,' he said. 'I can do bad'."

That's funny because I've always thought he was bad in everything he did, especially singing.

In the new James Bond novel [insert name], young Bond is pivoted against the most vile villain ever to appear in any book, movie, or TV show... THE GIRL'S SEX-ED TEACHER!!!!!

Keep the villains out of this world, and never have them be a schoolteacher in the YJB series.

On a more serious note. Howabout RIchard Roxborough. He plays Dracula in Van Helsing and was "M" in last years League of Extrordinary Gentlemen. I saw an interview with him, he came off suave and sophisticated, (like the best Bond villians) and from his recent outtings he can be OTT w/o any problem.

I will be crucificated by saying this maybe but I think Tom Cruise could be a capable Bond villain. More of an Psycotic type villain.

In my own opinion of course, I think he is cocky, slightly stuck-up, sometimes overrated, and slightly annoying. I like some of his films, but he's just not my favorite. Therefore, I wouldn't want to see him act in a James Bond film, let alone as a villain.

1. Tom Cruise have his own kind of Secret Agent.
2. For my feeling Tom Cruise is an to over rated and to much populair acter for in a Bond movie.
4. No acter for in a 007 movie
3. There are people you don

Cruise is in that same league as Schwarzenegger where the actor commands $20-30 million a film. I can't see EON shelling out that much money for him. Though I would like to James Bond kill the man who killed Jim Phelps. I'm still not over the end of Cruise's Mission Impossible (1). Lousy punk kid, who does he think he is killing one the great spy icons of my youth, grumble, grumble...

they should get an older man to play the villian, some old cat who knows the sytem and how to exploit it. they make for interesting characters and makes his henchmen more interesting. they should use some old communist boss or deposed african boss. what about blofeld? bring him back or some other villian from the past. they should stay away form the terrorism issue, it would be a bore.
they should deal with a latin american villian or some idiot oil ceo or computer ceo.

I like the idea of an older villain and I always thought Peter O'Toole would make a fabulous villian..

If we are sticking with Brits ( we do bad guys soo well! ) I always championed Ben Kingsley though Patrick Stewart would be quite good.

Vanessa Redgrave is tops for a female villain, but Sigourney Weaver is close second.

American wise I would go for Tommy Lee Jones,Harvey Keitel and Steve Buscemi

and finally...

European I would go for Jean Reno and Rutger Hauer



Think that covers all angles..................

I agree slightly. I never was a fan of him. I thought he was good in "Minority Report". But back on topic, I think it'll be a stupid idea to have him play a baddie, when he already has a spy franchise of his own in "Mission: Impossible". It shouldn't be a cross-over with him. It's like saying Brosnan should be a baddie in his movies! Though a potential movie between Bond and Ethan Hunt sounds interesting...on paper I mean.

I've no problem with someone from a similar style movie genre playing in a Bond film. But I do have a problem if Tom Cruise if that someone.
