At least four test offers have been given out, and while unconfirmed, insiders tell Deadline that three of the four expected to test are Jack Lowden, Callum Turner and Josh O’Connor.

Completely agree. Only Lowden has the charm and the sophisticated looks and boyish charm of the pick. The other two are great actors, and you have described their vibes better than I could. I also think they just don’t have the all round looks of bond.

I will say I didn’t like Daniel Craig as the choice when it came out, however he turned out to be the best bond IMO, so bond can bring a surprise.

    Daniel Craig is certainly up there but there's a strong list of contenders.

    I still have a soft spot for Brosnan - Die Another Day was not his fault but I do blame Hollywood for that disaster of a Bond film. Goldeneye for me is still one of the best Bond movies.

    Dalton has too few a films, and he was damned good.

    Connery, is Connery....if anyone ever argues with you that Connery is the best bond, on balance of all things filmic, they're probably right and you're arguing for the fun of it. You can't take away what Connery did for the role but the others listed here certainly gave excellent interpretations of the character.

    I have a like of them all, but Brosnan is a no for me, the Americans make a mockery. After Craig I do think Connery. Then Moore.

    I like Brianne in most of his other stuff Esp Mobland at the mo.
