He doesn't scream Bond to me.
Though to be fair I haven't seen him in anything.
Just doesn't have that Bondian look. I could be wrong, but I'm not usually.

Wasn't he in Star Trek Nemesis. If so shouldn't that disqualify him.

Bale I don't think would be a good as Bond. But then look at what we are told is too perfect now ;)

He was Shinzon, the young clone of Picard.

Are you kidding me? Thanks to Batman, I can definitely see him as Bond. On the other hand, he's too well known now.

It was a crappy movie. Not being very serious about it. He was pretty good for his part better than the Nero in the new Trek.

SHH wrote:Tom Hardy will play “a key role, not saying good or bad,” and to shoot down reports that he’ll resurrect The Joker by including unused footage of Heath Ledger’s performance in the previous chapter. “That’s all wrong,” said the writer-director, who’s also producing the next Superman movie, for Zack Snyder to direct.
Tom Hardy looks set to appear in another much anticipated movie that gets released in 2012...no not Bond 23.
The Dark Knight Rises.

Terrible movie. And the news that the writer is penning the script for Bond 23 fills me with dread.

Logan wrote Nemesis. Good writer but still not good enough to save the movie.

Maybe the plot of Bond 23 will have something to do with a cloned Bond! :twisted:
