The latest rumour in the ether is that Kick-Ass star Aaron Taylor-Johnson is a lock for the next iteration of James Bond.
If I'm honest, he's not the first name I thought of.
After a quick look for pix for this article, I think I've come around to the idea. He's British for a start, so that's a plus. I didn't realize that until now, assuming his accent in Kick-Ass was his natural one.
He's also a big, fit dude. He stands 5'11" and if the latest shots of him in the upcoming Kraven the Hunter movie, he's jacked. Also a plus.
He's also 33 or 34 years old, so he could play Bond for the next decade or more and that could mean 4 movies or more, so again, that's a plus. Resetting Bond to a 30 something and having his skills grow over a decade could be a great way to go.
Finally, there's the eyes. Check out the poster below. Ignore the silly mask and look at his eyes.
I enjoy James Bond movies. I've liked every Bond actor in one way or another, so I'm sure I'll enjoy him in the role should this rumour pan out.
I guess I'll have to give up hope for Kick-Ass 3...
