Okay, I think we're all agreed that Brad Pitt is the next James Bond. The End.

Although it is funnier imagining Chandler as Bond

Christian Bale, Jude Law, etc. seem far too fey (and, arguably, too young) for the role. Colin Firth, Ewan McGregor, Clive Owen... none of the names that regularly crop up in these threads seems quite right to me.
The one British actor I'd like to see take a shot at the role is Hugh Grant. I think he has what it takes to shed his bumbling fop image and play some aspects of Bond very well, although I must admit that this idea comes partly from the casting-so-bizarre-it-might-actually-work school of thought. There's also a very young (27-ish) British actor called Jack Davenport (supporting role in "The Talented Mr Ripley", and well known in the UK for playing a smarmy lawyer in the TV drama series "This Life") who I'd suggest the EON people keep an eye on.
While I've got plenty of suggestions for the next Bond girl/villain/M/Felix Leiter, it's tricky thinking of an actor who'd be absolutely perfect as the next James Bond. Brosnan's going to be a very hard act to follow.

The guy appearently needs to have acting lessons...
i guess your hoping for robbie to get the role so he can quickly run a 40-odd year franchise into the ground
No MGM are doing a pretty good job of that at the moment ...
Seriously, Robbie Williams isn't quite the joke you immediately think ... he does at least have a passion for the Bond series (did Dalton give a fig for Bond? Discuss) and filmed the homage to Connery's Bond that is the Millenium video - it might not be high art, but he carries off the Connery look - and no, that won't make him a potential Bond actor, but at least someone can see the funny side!

i would like a young, unknown, actor to play bond. It worked for Connery!
I couldn't really stand someone who would be remembered for another role. Pierce and Tim were perfecty picks, i didn't have too much room to argue.
but I don't see anyone nowadays to take over. bring someone New
AND NOT A YANK!!!!!!!!!
