Michael T. Weiss as Bond?

George Lazenby · Oct 26th, 2003, 04:33 PM

What about Michael T. Weiss as Bond? He was the star of the Pretender TV series. He is 6'3".

Also, he played George Lazenby's son in The Pretender series.

According to material on the internet, his specialty as an actor is being able to do any accent or any dialect, without any trace that he is doing the accent. So apparently he can do an English accent with his eyes closed and sound perfect.

His age is a question though.........he's 41 now, which would put him at 47 for Bond 23 probably.

So he would be much like Roger old, but much like Roger looks very young so it MIGHT be possible since, he is now the same age Pierce was in GE, yet looks a good 10-12 years younger than Pierce did in GE.

Interesting idea....I think he has the look, but I'm still VERY against having an American be Bond. I still think that Bond should be from the UK. Yes, I know Brosnan isn't, but Ireland's close enough for me.

Well one thing is for sure, he looks more like Bond than anyone else we have talked about here.

That I will agree with. He definitely has the suave look. Although I do reccomend trimming the hair.

Triming his hair could be a part of his opening scene to becoming bond for him.
