Clive Owen should absolutely be the next James Bond.

Good pick! He looks right and he can act; I remember his excellent performance in the "Second Sight" series. :-)

Just watched "I'll Sleep When I'm Dead", and was very pleasantly surprised - I expected a British gangster "shoot-em-up", but it was wonderfully subtle and dialog-focused - more of a thriller.

Owen could definitely do a strong, silent Bond, and it would be a nice variant on the "all action" Bond films of late.

And in Goshford Park... as the threatening, blackmailing butler. Yummy!!!

Ohmigod, you're right - that WAS him, wasn't it?

Clive Owens = yummy, part of the time, IMHO. Sometimes very posh and slick, other times he seems too neanderthal-browed and menacing to be anything but scary. Great voice though!
