There have been stories in the media in the last few days suggesting several guys, including Jeremy Northam and Colin Firth. So I doubt any of it until I hear a decision has been made. :) Laura ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 26 Apr 2001 13:22:43 -0400 From: Debra Douglass <ddoug@catrio.org> Subject: Times up for Lance It has been one week and Lance Aldridge has not offered one shred of proof about that HL fan's supposed 'murder'.

Having spoken to Brosnan personally, I can say that that he had an initial three film contract (covering GoldenEye, Tommorrow Never Dies and The Wolrd is Not Enough). He has sinced signed on to do another Bond film and as both sides are happy with the arrangement, both he and EON assume that he will probably be in the role for this film and AT LEAST one more. EON are forward planners and whenever they talk to another male actor about Bond, the tabloids love to speculate that he's the next one. Gerard Butler (think Wolverine/Dugray Scott type) who also stars in Dracula 2001 (pretty terrible, but nice twist to the tale and set in my favourite New Orleans) may well have met with EON at some point. He's a nice guy and we'll have an interview in Impact in the next couple of months! Incidentally, did anyone realise that Christopher Lambert was considered for the role of James Bond at one point? John Glen (who directed five Bond movies) reveals that nugget in his soon-to-be released autobiography (thanks to Batsford for the advance copy!). Of course, as soon as they heard the accent....never mind! :) Glen eventually directed Lambert in the upcoming The Point-Men. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 26 Apr 2001 20:08:41 EDT From: "Michele L. Kirksey" <MicheleShdwfx@cs.com> Subject: Re: AP/007 In a message dated 4/26/2001 12:28:23 PM Eastern Daylight Time, jette@blueyonder.co.uk writes: > > 1) Pierce Brosnan is NOT retiring from the role > 2) When the Daily Record says the sun rose this morning > intelligent Scots call the astronomy section of the University > to check. > > Jette > I don't know what the Daily Record is - is that where iwon.com gets info like this? Anyway, here's the rest of the article - twas rather silly of me not to send the whole thing: The strapping, 6-foot-2 stud was last seen in the title role of the USA cable miniseries "Attila" and last year starred in "Wes Craven's Dracula 2000," in which he has a steamy, nude sex scene. If chosen, Butler, 31, would be the second Scot to play the jet-setting super-spy who beds scores of beautiful women while saving the world from evil. The original Bond was a Scot - Sean Connery. Brosnan's contract expires after his fourth Bond flick, which is to begin filming in January, and producer Barbara Broccoli is anxious to nail down his successor. "Gerard is one of the two people Barbara has appointments with. They are meeting to discuss replacing Pierce," a source told the newspaper. Besides Butler, Broccoli will also meet with Colin Wells, who was Brosnan's stand-in and appeared with Anthony Hopkins in "Titus," the newspaper says. But Butler is believed to have the inside track, and he already has practiced for the role - having played a hero in real life. While filming the 1997 film "Mrs. Brown," he was enjoying a lakeside picnic with his mom when they heard the piercing screams of a young boy about to drown. Butler dived into the water fully clothed and pulled the panicked youngster to safety - then shyly said his brave deed was something anybody would have done. The dark-haired heartthrob has already made one short appearance in the Bond series, playing a seaman in "Tomorrow Never Dies." He's now in Ireland shooting the fantasy epic "Reign of Fire," with Matthew McConaughey. :) MicheleK ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 27 Apr 2001 01:19:01 +0100 From: John Mosby <A.J.Mosby@btinternet.com> Subject: Resending: [HL] AP/007 I think my post vanished earlier, so here we go again... *dddddrum-roll* (start small and build) > 1) Pierce Brosnan is NOT retiring from the role > 2) When the Daily Record says the sun rose this morning > intelligent Scots call the astronomy section of the University > to check. > > Jette Just to add to this.
