The Next Bond Film ‘Skyfall’ Casts a New Q
Q has become a very important character in the long history of the franchise of James Bond. He is the type that equips James Bond with all the latest spy gadgets, and most of all James Bond movies have at least one scene in which an actor playing assistant coach, arrives to give bail summary of all the artifacts deadliest y. But since Daniel Craig became the new Bond, things have changed. The Craig-starring Bond have reinvented the franchise to be more courageous and more based in reality. In these days of bond is most likely that only cave in the face with his fists, then hit him with a Taser gun hidden inside a fountain pen. So in the last two Bond films, Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, there has been no Q at all.
Do not worry fans of Bond classic, cheesy. The newest Bond film, now Skyfall official title, is poised to bring back Q, and according to the BBC, which will now be played by Ben Whishaw. Who is Ben Whishaw, one may ask? You may not British. He is a young actor who has been calling attention to the drama on the BBC news room was 50 hours, and is also set to play Richard II in a new BBC adaptation of Shakespeare’s work. Fans of the States, on the other side of the pond, I could recognize for his role in Julie Taymor’s version of The Tempest. If you’re into that kind of thing.
Whishaw is the youngest to play Q-type (Maybe? I am making bold statements!). Usually a young stud old man Bond, but this time Whishaw is actually a little more than a decade younger than Craig. If printing on paper, this could put comfortable playing in a concert of a new generation Q for a very long time to come. Factor in this high-profile concert that Whishaw is also cast in the adaptation sure to be the turn of the head of the Wachowski are making the best-selling novel “Cloud Atlas” and the actor could become a name very fast.
