If they have any preference these days its for character actors who have the ability to handle a leading role - Craig proved himself an exceptional capable and memorable actor right from the start of his already very established career - they're looking for the same qualities in the new lead.Ĭavill was in the running the first time around because the studio expected to see someone like him and Craig turned down the part, he wasn't interested - Barbara and Micheal G Wilson however were and that was right from the get go.įor the past 15 years they have avoided the usual, trite cliche's - they've thought outside the box, audiences have agreed with them - fans really need to start thinking like production.
NEW JAMES BOND ACTOR HENRY CAVILL TV
Brosnan was an established TV actor, especially in the states and Craig had a slew of high profile TV and film work under his belt. Moore was an extremely well established household name both sides of the Atlantic - you people clearly don't understand the impact TV carried back in the 60's and 70's compared to today. About the closest to that description was Dalton, and he'd starred in Flash Gorden and even at that stage in his career had done more theater than all the others put together.

The Bond films tend to make the actor a household name.
