Dream Movie Casting James Bond: Ryan Gosling, The Next 007?

The character of James Bond is part comedian, part secret agent. A witty playboy and a dark and brooding killer. He drinks well, sleeps well, and shoots well. Now the real question remains, who, if not Daniel Craig, will be the next James Bond after the release of Skyfall this November.

Clive Owen / James Bond

There are many contenders for the role of James Bond, head of the second-highest grossing franchise in history. Back before Craig was chosen, Clive Owen was considered a strong contender. He certainly knows his way around a gun, as seen in 2007’s Shoot Em Up, and his film The International could be considered a sort of “what if” film, as in “what if” he had been chosen as the next 007. Unfortunately, Owen would probably be too old for the role now.
