Tom Hardy as James Bond. Man, such a bold choice. So bold.
A betting war is brewing across the pond for who will be the next James Bond. BoyleSports, an online bookmaker based in Ireland, has polled a new contender to take over the franchise, following Daniel Craig’s eventual departure. The name is Hardy. Tom Hardy. “The Next James Bond market has certainly come alive with all the support coming in for Tom Hardy, who is now 4/1 from 6/1 to take over from Daniel Craig,” said BoyleSports spokesman Liam Glynn in a statement. Although those close to the franchise expect Craig to reprise the role for at least one more sequel following the upcoming “Spectre,” Craig told Esquire, “I have a life and I’ve got to get on with it a bit.”
This sounds really great, but I’m just not sure if it will work. His mother is an Irish immigrant, so I’m not sure if he’s “English-English enough”, ya know? Also, James Bond is supposed to be suave, and since Hardy was crack addict and had a recording deal as a rapper, I don’t know, I feel like he might me a little “too street” to pull this haha sorry I’ll stop Tom Hardy is white none of that other stuff matters lol
