Fans Demand Pierce Brosnan’s Return as Aged James Bond in Amazon Reboot!

by

In a surprising turn of events, something once considered unthinkable has occurred: long-standing James Bond producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson have handed over creative control of 007 to Amazon. As time has passed and fans have had a chance to process this news, they’ve been expressing their preferences for spin-off projects on social media. At the moment, there’s a strong desire to see a return of a past Bond actor portraying an older version of the legendary spy, which is the most popular suggestion so far.

Since Daniel Craig has left the Bond role after 2021’s “No Time to Die,” and with Amazon now taking control and presumably leading the franchise towards uncharted territory, there are many who are advocating for Pierce Brosnan to reprise his role as an older James Bond. Twitter user and ardent 007 fan @Thunderballs007 exclaims, “You know you want it. And you want Amazon to give it to you,” while sharing several poster concepts that hint at what such a project could entail.

The reaction to this concept has been extremely enthusiastic, with fellow Bond enthusiast @Shaun_Wren expressing that Brosnan deserves a fitting farewell after the critically panned Die Another Day. They stated, “I’d like Brosnan to have a proper send-off because I can’t accept DAD as his last Bond. I would opt for a Logan-style production with a reduced budget, but I am concerned it might follow the path of Never Say Never Again in terms of storyline. I’d have Horowitz writing the script.

An Aged James Bond Would Reflect These Cinematic Times

As a dedicated film enthusiast, the idea of having Pierce Brosnan reprise his role as James Bond in a new film resonates deeply. The character of Bond has always mirrored the cinematic zeitgeist, and with actors like Liam Neeson and Denzel Washington leading the charge for the mature action hero, along with an abundance of nostalgic blockbusters, we’re currently living in a golden age for legacy sequels. Moreover, it’s evident that Brosnan has preserved the charm and knack for action he so gracefully showcased during his four-film tenure as Bond. @AuthorPylesJ exclaims, “Now THAT would be an amazing James Bond with Pierce Brosnan as today’s Bond,” while @TheShinBatman84 adds, “I’d gladly pay top dollar to see Brosnan as Bond again.” The positive sentiments continue unabated, with @KelleyToons chiming in, “Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes (this is the ONLY way I’ll ever be interested in Bond again. And I’m not alone – this would be a license for them to print money).

Although it appears that the James Bond franchise is set to adapt to a multi-universe format, filled with content, not everyone is in agreement. “@migscarreira” prefers the return of Pierce Brosnan, stating “He had his run. I’d prefer Dalton,” while “@AdrianAskarieh” expresses disapproval towards portraying Bond as an introspective character grappling with age, arguing that it was already explored during several of the Daniel Craig outings. They further comment that the idea of an aging Bond doesn’t seem appealing and worked well for “Logan” due to its dark and tragic nature, but might not suit Brosnan or Dalton. Moreover, they feel that fans have experienced enough of an older Bond in the last three movies, suggesting it’s time for a change.

At present, we can only anticipate Amazon’s plans for the James Bond character and series. However, would you be interested in a film featuring an older 007, played by Pierce Brosnan, perhaps?
