Tough question! He was/is just so good and really carried/s the new generational characterisation of Bond so damn well!

In a way it doesn't really matter. Craig was such an abysmal Bond he's ruined the franchise single handedly. Which was already a tired franchise far too long in the tooth.

Too old to play the part but for sure should be on the casting committee. 

It'll be PC farcical for the sake of it. I'm all for ending Bond on this one before it descends into wishy washy meh.

Not a real Bond fan then. With the possible exception of Dalton, he is the embodiment of James Bond as Fleming would have it. Ruthless and sharp. Brilliant actor, Casino Royale awesome. Typically not the cup of tea of some of the diehard oldies out there, however, who can't get past Connery and, gawd forbid, Moore.

All of the serious suggestions here are of men in their 40s or 50s. How about someone around 30-35 years old? Sean Connery was 31 when they made Dr. No.  

Based on the poll, I might go with Theo James. But I’d like to suggest Joe Dempsie (Gendry from GoT) as an option.

Seems most people don't agree with you

 

The UK’s favourite Bond is Connery with 38% of the vote, followed by Craig on 26.6%. 

A drop further down and its Moore in third place at 17.6% and Brosnan on 12.3%.

The bottom two, Dalton and Lazenby, only achieved 2.9% and 2.6% – but that’s hardly surprising seeing as they made only three Bond films between them.

Only a 2000 sample. Way too small.

 

It doesn't matter anyway, Craig was a terrible Bond. Wooden, no chemistry with the leading ladies, but of course he was given politically correct scripts that had next to nothing to do with Fleming's Bond. But as a Bond himself Craig was utterly devoid of charm. James Bond movies lived off their charm. Craig had the charm of a brick thrown against a cement wall.

Prince Andrew, hes familiar with tight spots.

From a single parent family, originally from a war torn country, who traveled across many oceans, and settled in the UK.

If he was married with kids ( a boy, a girl, and 'another') then that would be just perfect.

 

Politically correct BS. Pick a white British man, who is handsome and a bit of a decent actor. End of.

Bond is half Swiss. Do they not have a shot?

 

I hope they put a woman in and then I won't mind never seeing another in what remains of my life.

He's also Scottish, so there are a number of good Scottish actors out there that could fill the role. Dougray Scott, Ewan McGregor and Gerard Butler would be some good choices, especially Butler.

AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH, Never Butler. He was lead in Hunter Killer and the "has fallen' movies. He'd be another Dalton or Lazenby, IMO.

No way he was the best by far IMHO.  Tired old franchise and he brought it back to life you could not pay me to watch Roger.

A Rylan Clark type seems to be todays choise. Sort of a Jane Bond.

Hillary Clinton ticks a few boxes.

Dwayne Johnson... it's time for a Bond that looks like he can handle the action.
