Yeah I heard about this last night, and laughed my arse off when a friend told me. As much as I like Bana and think he is a great actor, I couldn't take him seriously as Bond. He is Poida, not the most suave man in the world.
Apparently both parties have denied it though, so who knows.
I think Eric is an AWFUL actor. He was laughable with his accent in Black Hawk Down, and absolutely disgraceful in The Hulk. Yet he makes millions. Weird.
Ive heard a rumour that the dude that played hornblower could be in the running for james bond but he is probably too young. But it would rock if he got it
Kem... the guy who played Hornblower (if it is the same person I'm thinking of) has infact just been cast to play Reed Richards in the Fantastic 4. How do I know this? I am a geek afterall!
I've onyl seen troy out of those movies. He wasn't bad, but he just wasn't "Hector". I think he was let down by the movie itself, which was fuckin ordinary considering how good the iliad could have been!
