OTOH since the job of an actor is to play someone they're not, and looking at how well some English actors are at American roles, who knows!

It would have to be a remarkable actor though, because otherwise why take the risk. Same with a black actor really.

Yup agreed I guess. Whatever they do people will love it or loath it as they do everytime they change something but at the end of the day they don't care as long as it gets people through the door spending their cash. I guess those people will enjoy the film as well whatever.

Just have take my grumpy northern ass home and get over it I guess.

That's just to our ears, I think. Whenever I see a Brit attempting an American accent I often wonder if they sound as unwittingly inauthentic to real Septics as most people attempting a Glaswegian accent do to Jocks.

And, whilst we're on the subject, may I just say that Edward Woodward wouldn't have given a wooden performance if they would have given him the role in his youth. He would have wooed the audience.



OK, I'll stop now.

Bond has to be a white posh bloke, it's part of the character.

You wouldn't have a white John Shaft.
