I haven't been to the theaters in a decade or more, but I would show up to see Tig Notaro as Bond. Or maybe Leslie Jones?

I was confused. Then I realised I was thinking of Leslie Nielsen.

Guys. We should get Leslie Nielsen to play James Bond.

Sorry to break it to you, but he's dead.

I see a challenge to rise Leslie Nielsen from the dead.

Don't give Hollywood any more ideas for dumb uses of a.i.

If it weren't for the fact that he wasn't British, he could've been the first James Bond. He was only a couple years older than Sean Connery, and was a well-known dramatic actor at the time Dr. No came out.

The First bond was Barry Nelson in 1954 for CBS. His birth name was Robert… Nielsen.

A little late now, but I could see it. When I was growing up, he had already transitioned to comedies and I didn't learn until much later in life he was a serious dramatic actor before that. Still haven't seen of his older/serious work, and TBH, I don't know if my brain will accept it lol.
