Hmmm, maybe, but I don't think he looks *right* for the role of Bond. I think that EON may think of more appropiate actors to play Bond, over Neeson, and I think that he may be alittle too old, but I can't remember his age right now.

are you having a Paul McGrath he will be 55 by the time the 2007 movie is released and that is far too old if they were going to select Liam Neeson they might as well select Leslie Nielson to play Bond at least he could pull off the humour side of it.

It was rumoured that Kevin McClory at one point planned to use Liam Neeson as Bond for Warhead 2000.

Isn't Neeson already past the 50 mark? Not 100% about that, but I can't see them starting off with anyone beyond 45.

Oh, man. I have never even thought of. He would be great... if he were ten years younger. He is already 50 years old and he'll be about 55 if he plays Bond in 2007. That's just too old...

Brosnan for 2005 and 2007, and 2008, to squeeze one last one out of him. No one today could better him.

I have read in the past that George Clooney is appropriate in the role as James Bond, but for me the problem would be the "English Accent", That is only the factor for me, but the rest is okay
