As a long-time fan of the James Bond franchise, I can’t help but be captivated by the idea of an aged James Bond movie starring Pierce Brosnan. The thought of seeing Brosnan, who played 007 with such charm and grace during his tenure, return one final time is simply too enticing to ignore.
As a devoted James Bond fan, I’m still pondering about the upcoming chapters for this legendary franchise, which concluded with Daniel Craig’s poignant farewell in “No Time to Die” (2021). With the iconic spy leaving us hanging, fans like me have been brainstorming ideas for what’s next. Recently, a fellow enthusiast named X/Twitter user @PAPPADEMAS proposed an enticing concept: an aged James Bond movie featuring a former 07 agent from the “GoldenEye” era. Frankly, the thought of Pierce Brosnan reprising his role as 007 one last time in “Tomorrow Never Dies” is a proposal that’s hard to resist.
As the months roll by, it becomes increasingly exasperating that nobody is agreeing to produce a standalone film titled ‘Commander Bond,’ featuring an older James Bond coming back from retirement for one final mission. This role should be played by the chosen actor.
It’s evident that many Bond fans share the view that Pierce Brosnan should reprise his role as Bond in a later story, as expressed by users such as PaxTobiPax and mtedder. PaxTobiPax suggests a single film could serve as a fitting conclusion to Brosnan’s tenure as 007, with a director taking on a one-time project to pave the way for a new Bond and creative team in subsequent films. This idea is reminiscent of “The Dark Knight Returns,” a turning point for Batman, according to @mtedder.
User @Corb_The_ Lesser suggests that while it might seem unlikely given the franchise’s usual practices, the idea of bringing back Pierce Brosnan as an older Bond is intriguing. However, some may argue that this concept has been explored before, given Daniel Craig’s portrayal of a Bond past his prime in several films. Furthermore, @Thievesbook mentions that Sean Connery reprised his role as 007 in “The Rock,” suggesting that the idea is not entirely new. Nevertheless, the tantalizing prospect of Brosnan donning the tuxedo once more and returning to action remains an engaging discussion point.
Pierce Brosnan Is Still Kicking Ass & Taking Names Beyond Bond
In 1995, Pierce Brosnan made his debut as James Bond in “GoldenEye.” He went on to undertake more missions in “Tomorrow Never Dies” (1997), “The World Is Not Enough” (1999), and “Die Another Day” (2002). The latter film paved the way for Daniel Craig’s tenure as 007, and remains a favorite among Bond fans of a particular generation. It’s clear that Brosnan, now 71 years old, hasn’t lost his action prowess. Last year alone, he starred in the action thriller “Fast Charlie” and the action comedy “The Out-Laws.” He’s also set to continue his cinematic spy career in the upcoming Steven Soderbergh directed thriller “Black Bag,” which indicates that Brosnan could still excel as Bond even after all these years.
At the moment, it’s uncertain what lies ahead for the James Bond series. There’s a strong rumor suggesting that Aaron Taylor-Johnson, known for his roles in “Kick-Ass” and “Bullet Train,” could take on the role. Pierce Brosnan has reportedly given his approval to this potential casting choice, as they previously worked together in the 2009 drama “The Greatest.
“I think the man has the chops and the talent and the charisma to play Bond, very much so. One of the first movies we made, one of the earliest movies, was ‘The Greatest.’ And he was the greatest in it. So, yes, I read the news about his possibilities of being a Bond, so I would definitely tip my hat to the fellow.”
Among the contenders for the upcoming James Bond role are Henry Cavill, Damson Idris, James Norton, and Regé-Jean Page. It’s said that Eon is currently discussing with possible directors, including Edward Berger (winner of an Academy Award for All Quiet on the Western Front), Kelly Marcel (Venom: The Last Dance)), David Michôd (Animal Kingdom, The Rover), Bart Layton (The Imposter, American Animals), and Yann Demange (’71, Top Boy). No matter what the new James Bond looks like, it will be tough not to envision the thrilling action of one final mission with Pierce Brosnan’s 007.
