It looks like Wilson's role in a Bond film may be a little bigger this time around. I'm looking forward to seeing him. Who I'm not looking forward to seeing is Richard Branson! Oh god, please let his cameo be a tiny one. I hate how he is going to be in it.

[Vauxhall]

Ahh the famous cameo. Script readers, could he possibly be:

Spoiler

the corrupt policeman arrested on Bond's arrival in Montenegro?

Sounds like it to me. That's one of his larger roles if I'm correct - but one without any lines.

[Qwerty]

I personally prefer the tiny, hard to spot Wilson cameos (as in For Your Eyes Only or Octopussy). His A View to a Kill is the most difficult one of all to catch in my opinion.

While his Tomorrow Never Dies one is fun, I wish he would have just done the leaning against the car cameo in Die Another Day and not the General Chandler one as well.

...

God. Only a Bond fan would be discussing such a thing.

[Skudor]

It's best when the cameo isn't a speaking one. The TLD cameo is too distracting. The GE one is cool.

[adamwest007]

Wilson's TLD cameo distracting? Isnt he just a face in the audience next to Saunders (or whatever that guy that dies in the auto door is called). How did you find it distracting?
The only one I noticed upon first viewing is the TND one. Saw him sitting at that table with Mishkin in goldeneye on 2nd viewing. Realised it was his voice at the start of licence to kill only coz of the audio commentary.

I'd love it if someone could post a list of all his cameos. Would be interesting.

All there including DVD Freeze times so you can spot him yourself.

LOL - I meant to say TND (typo) - where he's a giant face on a screen and delivers a rather wooden line. I've never noticed him in TLD.

[Bryce (003)]

Here's one everyone *might* have missed.

DAF - After Bond gives "swimming lessons" to Bambi and Thumper, Felix and the CIA boys show up. Take note of one of the young agents who shoots the lock off Willard Whyte's apartment/cell at the house. Real young, real thin, it's MGW.

No two ways about it. Although he can't be spotted, he's also one of the Double-O's in the briefing in Thunderball along with a few other crew members.

Good fun behind the scenes.

Do you know- I've never noticed him in Cuba.

So, he wasn't in A View to a Kill?

Wasn't Wilson's voice heard at City Hall? I always thought that was where his A View to a Kill cameo was.

Yeah that's what I thought too. His voice can be heard very faintly in the background.

he was probably talking to John Glen about his next cameo

Where's Wilson? - all the details on his A View to a Kill cameo there, Dlib.

And Mark, I may be wrong, but I think there is actually a picture of Wilson leaning on the car for his first Die Another Day cameo in the Bond On Set book for the film.

I just checked out of curiosity and it appears I was wrong. Sorry.

In any event, 00:31:10 is the DVD freeze (Region 1) for it in Die Another Day
