Welcome to The List,

We have updated James Bond news for the diehard fans…There have been a lot of names thrown around for the next James Bond, but there’s still no word when the choice will be announced. One thing we now know, however, is that it probably won’t be a young guy.  A casting director working on the new Bond flick says they’re looking for someone with more “life experience. ”Quote, “We did look at a lot of younger actors, and I just don’t think they had the gravitas to pull it off”.  We have been seeing some posts on social media hinting at maybe Henry Cavill.

I did pull the tire up and I got it up, but he said that he will flip the tire the length of like a football field, y’all. And I’m just not going to do that. I will stick to running. If Tim McGraw wants to do a running challenge, let’s go.”
