Blind Item #13

The producers of this long running franchise don't care at all about the cloud swirling around the head of this foreign born former superhero. They want to cast him as their next replacement.

Cavill

And DCMarvel

sandybrook said...

Cavill and maybe Batman since Ben is out?

MDAnderson said...

Bond

Tricia13 said...

And Bond for his new role!??

Brayson87 said...

That would be smart, he was excellent in The Man from U.N.C.L.E, a highly underrated movie.

IanPhlegming said...

I immediately thought Henry Cavill and James Bond.

sandybrook said...

Bond makes sense might as well throw every fucking name against the wall and see who sticks. Maybe someone would GAF about those movies then.

yepthatsme said...

hey Enty, can you tell us the exact release date of the next bond movie, since you seem to know what the producers are thinking? And yes the title too!

“Not to say they weren’t doing real stunts–I’m just saying it would be fun for me to actually take what I’ve learnt on this and carry it through to a movie like Bond," he continued. "I’d love to play a Brit–I don’t get to play a Brit very often. So yes, I would love the opportunity and if they were to ask, I would say yes.”

So they’d rather hire someone who is a predator over Idris Elba? They’d rather a huge scandal that would ruin the franchise??? So gross

Rosie riveter said...

Henry Cavill for Bond?
Um. No.
I know the jury is still out whether he's gay or not- what's important is that he *looks* gay.
You cannot have an effeminate James Bond any more than you can have a black James Bond.
For the record, I would LOVE Idris Elba cast as JB. I'm just giving the argument for the sake of all the JAMES BOND CANT BE BLACK people

Brayson87 said...

@Unknown, well it's said that all the girls were of legal age, which in Europe is basically the curb test.

News said...

Henry Cavill as Bond? Really?

yepthatsme said...

They will never hire a big star to play James Bond! This is just a pr ploy by his own team, like when Idris Elbas team planted stories about him being in contention being the new bond! Right now they are more concerned with finding a director for their latest bond movie.

Unknown said...

Does James Bond count as a superhero? It's been settled now that superheroes should be played by gay men. Kit Harrington, moral pastor of America, has spoken. Sorry to any straight black men who might like the parts; you are outranked.

Mac said...

Man, Enty going after Cavill hard, but still won't talk actual facts, just this China underage innuendo. As if Tom Cruise would put up with that during PR for a movie. lol

Anonymous said...

Oh boy Enty has it in for Cavill now. But I'm confused, is he gay, does he like kinky sex with muscular women, or does he like young girls. I get whiplash keeping up with this.

Sara, Making It Work said...

Today's reminder : BI PEOPLE EXIST

Jon said...

Henry as Bond. YES YES YES YES YES YES YES. The gods have answered my prayers.

cat said...

Elba is too old, to play Bond. It doesn't matter how fit he is, Elba has aged out, of the role.

Zebra Seasoning said...

The Man from U.N.C.L.E. _was_ pretty good, and he did well. Of the two though, I'd rather see Armie Hammer as Bond.

Ophelia said...

@Sara, thank you!! Geesh bi-erasure is prevalent

Brayson87 said...

@Ophelia, bi-erasure, I like that. Yeah look at Marlon Brando, he didn't care about gender as long as there was a slot, just ask the mailbox! ;)

Jon said...

Please show us proof that he's a predator. And please get off the Elba train. That was NEVER going to happen.

Me Again said...

I don't think that Elba has aged out of Bond.

BestMan said...

I miss Chrristopher Reeves.

Jon said...

He's like 70.

Stupidpervs said...

Dang I still haven't seen it

Stupidpervs said...

Good point ..crazy or not Toms in the business of business ...great work ethic

Stupidpervs said...

Watch the movie A bump in the night ....ruined Christopher for me

HeatherBee said...

I respectfully disagree with those who say Iris is too old to play Bond. Tom Cruise is like a thousand years old and proven that nothing is “impossible”. Sorry bout that!

orangesoda said...

Ugh. I really wanted Hardy but I guess he's stuck with the Venom crap now.
Cavill just seems so meh to me. I don't really care if he's gay or straight. Kit Harrington does need to shut the fuck up though. The majority of people would not enjoy seeing two blokes get it on in Bond-type sex scenes, sorry SJW Kit. If you want to see even more gays in movies and tv shows, then audition for gay parts yourself instead of preaching to others.

Ponzi said...

Have been hoping for years that Cavill would be the next Bond. I think he is perfect for it Apparently, he was too young for the role when he first auditioned for it.
This of course only if he doesn't turn out to be a creep/predator.

Jelly Queen said...

Zero interest in watching a Cavill Bond. Even without him being a nonce, it’s a return to Suave Bond when we’ve moved on to Damaged Bond. Dull, dull, dull.

I Can't Believe It's Not Butter said...

Bond needs to be gorgeous, charismatic, youthful yet "seasoned". What star, no matter the race, currently fits that description?

Freckles said...

Mathew Goode or Aiden the Poldark actor would be better

kirk said...

Im generally a lurker here, but had to put my 2 cents in. Cavill needs to go away. He creeps me out.

Jne said...

armie hammer looks more flaming than cavill. Plus isnt he american? Dont they only hire UK or bristish overseas terriotoire residents to play bond?

- said...

If Hollywood wasn't still so homophobic, Matt Bomer would make a great Batman or Superman.

Angela said...

Bullshit blind.

The Bond franchise has only hired "cheap" actors, not guys who were previously a name above the title for major productions.

Actually, Cavill was this close to getting the part in 2006, as he was the first pick from the Casino Royale director, Martin Campbell. Daniel Craig was in the shortlist, and Barbara Broccoli ultimately chose him, which may have been her best decision so far.

Also, Bond 25 is still on track for a late 2019 release, even if they haven't made a decision about a new director, with Craig confirmed as Bond and as an associate producer, with the full support of Michael H. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli. At this point, by the way, it would be difficult to rewrite the script with a new lead they have zero experience with. And, in the middle of this production, the last thing in the producers mind is also to decide who would be the new actor for Bond 26, to be released in 2022 or 2023.

Sal T said...

He would make the world’s most boring Bond. So he should fit right in.

Unknown said...

YES YES YES to Aiden Turner/Poldark!! Brilliant

Unknown said...

Aiden Turner would be brilliant as Bond

IanPhlegming said...

Armie Hammer: Hollywood's least appealing handsome man.

Yeoman Princess said...

Long time lurker, rare poster, but these Cavill blinds are making my brain hurt so I'm chiming in.
First he's as gay as Liberace and hiring beards.
Next he likes rough sex and 3somes with women.
Now he's a gross disturbed pedo (which if he is... he needs to be outed ASAP, I don't care if 14 is legal where he goes).

I'm starting to think Enty has a crush with these constant all over the place Cavill blinds!

And Cavill as Bond... that's a NO! Not charismatic or sexy enough. He is good looking, but lacks that easy charisma and sexy is not a word I'd use for Henry.

Weekittylass said...

Definitely Aidan Turner.

Black Tiger Steals Heart said...

YES
People who want Idris are insane. Americans always think the rest of the world is burdened with white guilt just as they are. Cast Idris as Bond and the franchise goes to shit for all of his movies. L.A America won't go see a black bond, and neither will all of Asia, East Europe, etc.
Cavill was born to play Bond.

Boo said...

Hamid, I like Matt as well, but unfortunately he's not tall enough to play Bat/Supes.

Boo said...

Aiden Turner would be very hot for Bond. I thought Cavill was sexy in The Tutors. I truly hope he isn't a pedo, that would just ruin it for me with him. I've liked him since The Tutors and its disheartening to read this rumors. If he is though, burn him down.

I miss Christopher Reeves as well. I loved Brandon Routh, he needed a better script. I met him in person and he's a sweet and lovely guy. Very tall!

Florin said...

Idris Elba is as old as Roger Moore was when he started playing Bond.

My wife will fight anyone who says Cavill isn't sexy enough to play Bond.

pixiegothy said...

Just finished watching that movie @Stupidpervs, very upsetting! that little boy was so smart, Cristopher was very convincing as the bad guy, made me so mad at him! I recommed also Above Suspicion, Death Dreams, Somewhere in Time. I always liked Christopher, RIP

FrenchGirl said...

The most idiotic idea. Cavill as Batman
