I think the news from TV Guide’s Ask Ausiello through Coming Soon is pretty strong confirmation that Goran Visnjic is in the final run as the new Bond.
Question: Is it true that Goran Visnjic is among the finalists to take over as James Bond? And what does this mean for him on ER? — Sandy
Ausiello: Yes, it’s true. But should he get the role, it wouldn’t mean the end of Kovac. “We have a contingency plan,” says exec producer David Zabel. “We would film a bunch of stuff [with Kovac] at one time for later episodes. Or, depending on where the Bond film was shooting, he might be able to work on both at the same time.
The important part is the quote from Zabel there, he’s a Producer and Writer for ER and if he knows and is prepared to work around it then it’s pretty clear Visnjic is in the running. I mean he’d have to check with his current bosses.
At least this is the first concrete news we’ve had…now what about the others? I can’t see a date on that question, so was the answer gained before or after the London auditions? If after, does it mean he’s the one?
