Young actors don’t have the ‘experience’ to play Jame Bond: casting director
McWilliams looked back on the medley of classic leading men, noting how each actor was different in their own way and how their level of notoriety didn’t really influence their casting.
“Timothy Dalton was known, but he was known as a Shakespearean actor, really. Pierce [Brosnan] was known, but that was basically from television. Roger Moore was known from television. Sean Connery wasn’t [known] – nobody had ever heard of him,” McWilliams said of the men who have transformed into Bond over the decades.“A certain audience had heard of Daniel Craig, but much more the kind of independent cinema audience.
The hunt for the next super spy has been a great topic of discussion in recent years, with front-runners including Aaron Taylor-Johnson, 32; Idris Elba, 50; and Regé-Jean Page, 34, being rumored to take on the role. Franchise producer Michael G. Wilson also gave his take on how the next Bond shouldn’t be a member of the young Hollywood set.said at an event at the British Film Institute“But trying to visualize it doesn’t work,” Wilson said. “Remember, Bond’s already a veteran.”“He’s probably been in the SAS or something. He isn’t some kid out of high school that you can bring in and start off. That’s why it works for a 30-something.
