Pierce Brosnan is saying that James Bond Producers probably already regret their decision to let him go in favour of a younger Daniel Craig. I don’t know who Brosnan has been talking to… but when I saw footage of the press conference they seemed pretty damn excited to me.
I’ve gone on record before that I think Brosnan is a gifted actor and was a great James Bond. I wouldn’t have minded seeing him continue in the role. However, he’s always had a knack for saying stupid thing at stupid times… like right now. This is from the good folks over at M&C:
The Irish actor, 52, was heartbroken at being dropped from the role of the suave superspy, and he is certain movie bosses have made a huge mistake. He says, “Whether they made the right choice, who knows? They’re probably scared s**tless, thinking, ‘What have we done?'”
Ummm… no Pierce… they aren’t. The world doesn’t not revolve around Pierce Brosnan, and Pierce Brosnan needs to learn that. Personally I think Criag will make a great Bond. Was he my first choice? No… not really… but it’s a good choice nonetheless… even if Brosnan doesn’t think so.
