You know, I'm beginning to think they should just forget about even trying to replace Brosnan and just end the series when he decides to step down.

Back in 1967 some people no doubt said the same in relation to Connery.
Maybe they had a point, but the world would be a poorer place if the series had come to an end.

I couldn't see past Brosnan for another Bond but after watching Kate and Leopold I could see Hugh Jackman playing the part. He certainly has the looks, sophistication and accent. I haven't seen any other films with him in it so the question for me would be around his action ability. Has he been in any action films?

Has anyone considered Billy Zane?

Just stirring the pot a little,

I haven't seen that yet. I couldn't decide whether I would like it or not. I just guess I will have to watch it now. Thanks Icephoenix.

Spectre, even though Kate and Leopold is not an action film, its a better basis to judge Jackman as a potential Bond than Swordfish is. Not that we cant judge him on his appearance in Swordfish, its just that he plays a more Bond like character in K&L.

Anyone looking for the garbage started by 'His Majesty' look in this thread. Everyone else go about your lives normally.
