Jackman might have too much range then to have ever been Bond. All the other Bond actors have been defined by the role. Connery will always be known as the best Bond. Moore will only be known for playing Bond. Dalton will be known as the worst Bond. Brosnan will be known as the guy that should have been Bond sooner. Lazenby is the forgotten Bond. Brosnan even ends up playing a spy in some of his non-Bond movies (The Tailor of Panama, The Matador). Jackman can go for the chick-flicks like "Kate and Leopold" and that one with Ashley Judd, or for the action flicks like "Swordfish" and "X-Men" and dramas like "The Prestige" and "The Fountain".
But given his resemblance to a young Clint Eastwood, I'd rather see him make a "Dirty Harry" type movie. |
