No offense, but atleast for the Bond Girl, and as the names been suggested in the media -> Not the likes of -> Sydney Sweeney, NOR, Gal Gadot, NOR, Priyanka etc.; because, if they can, then why not also -> Daisy Edgar Jones, OR, Isabela Merced, OR, many more?
In one of my earlier blog, I opined that, who should become the next James Bond, wherein I wrote that it should be in sync with the cast of GOLDENEYE. If one can find GOLDENEYE’S Pierce Brosnan, and further now, if one can find GOLDENEYE’S Izabella Scorupco, then one has found the Bond Girl or Woman.
Look: The Alien franchise worked because the main Protagonist was in Sync with the .mind blowing character. And it was because of Sigourney Weaver, that the Alien franchise since 1979 worked. If someone had tried to replace her with someone else, the Alien franchise wouldn’t have become, amongst the greatest hits.
Similarly, if one wants to remake Seinfeld, then, one must find a person who can replace Michael Richards and Wayne Knight. It is because of these two men, Seinfeld reached to a point of no return from the Top.
Similarly, John Wick became hit because of Keanu Reeves. Matrix became irreplaceable because of him and Laurence Fishburne. So goes for the Terminator or Rambo and many more.
Once a bar is set, then, one must find either the same or similar match, or maybe, better than them, else, the entire franchise would drown like the deck of cards.
Thus, when it comes to Bond Girl OR Woman, please don’t cast the faces which look, more like Actresses. What you need is an Artist. Those killer looks! Unmatched Style! Which cannot be taught at any of the Theatres or Academic Institute; nor can be Trained by PR Firms!
GOLDENEYE was the benchmark. Can that be broken or crossed, that should be the question.😊
