I haven’t seen her in any roles/ movies

My point is 007 always gets the gorgeous ladies … the classically beautiful ones so I don’t see how a non binary option would appeal

…she is imo and obviously in the opinion of casting producers ‘classically beautiful’ as the roles of Princess Diana and Lady Chatterley and the upcoming Elizabeth Bennet are all characters to be considered ‘classically beautifully’ so she’s exactly considered to be physically perfect for that role and also of the ‘gorgeous James Bond’ variety as your definition is …as to someone in their personal life identifying as non binary but playing roles that aren’t non binary if that’s what the character is or isn’t well that’s quite the usual thing for acting, to portray a character that doesn’t necessarily reflect who the actor is in their real life…we don’t even know if she is indeed going to have a role in a Bond movie so we have no idea what would appeal to her…/…why she would be drawn to a role….actually I don’t know what the preferred pronouns are for Emma Corrin…I mean, all I’m taking from this is that you personally don’t find Emma Corrin attractive and that’s obviously in the eye of the beholder…if casting producers didn’t completely disagree as I also do, she wouldn’t have been chosen for such ‘classically beautiful character roles’….but her acting portfolio seems to be pretty much made up of those roles…

I had to look her up on Google images..

So being a sucker for a pretty face such as ..

Charleze Theron , Leslie Anne Down , Michelle Keegan types

I would not class her as being gorgeous at all and that’s the issue with the idea of 007 suddenly changing his taste in women

….well atm it’s still to be confirmed which actor will be in the Bond role, let alone who any other featured actors/characters will be…it’s all speculation …I believe that the only reason for Emma’s name being out there is that within that speculation her name has been suggested widely by some public who feel she is ‘gorgeous enough’ and asked yes why can’t we have Emma please…imo every ‘Bond leading lady’ brings a unique aspect to the role with each different actor’s character… as does each different Bond casting themselves and it’s as yet to be seen what the new chosen actor will bring / and we all have our favourites and least favourites etc ….and that’s the classical beauty and gorgeous-ness of discovering new…I’m sure that if Emma is cast then the new James Bond casting will find her face as pretty as all of the other roles she’s played have been….

The casting of James Bond is irrelevant in the matter … unless it goes to Eddie Izzard

….you asked a question of thoughts about what you consider to be a ‘brave idea’…of a casting that is nothing more than rumours and speculation…I’m not sure that any descriptive of brave would apply to the casting of that actress in that part and especially considering the ‘classical beauty roles’ she’s already been accredited so far in her career….I’ve given you my thoughts fully, I had no intention of sharing thoughts in this very confusing to me stance had you not directly asked for those thoughts…when we ask for opinions etc, we have to be open to receiving them and not reducing things to irrelevant …I’ll leave you to your opinions and to any thoughts that you prefer to hear that may align more with your own…

I don’t know that to say

My concern was never about the actress in question or her casting it was the non binary aspect

I certainly don’t want to fall out about this

It just seems odd knowing what we know about his tastes to think of 007 falling for a non binary person

I will be interested to see their thoughts on this brave idea .

Now ..


Before the usual suspects all pile on I am probably one of the few who can count a non binary guy as a friend and ex colleague soooo


We worked together not long ago and hit it off as we are both on the spectrum …
Halle Berry has nothing on this them.

…I just don’t understand why an aspect of who she is…/…or who they are, maybe would be more accurate had no impact on her role as Princess Diana in The Crown or Lady Chatterley and Elizabeth Bennet in an adaption that’s about to screen and yet it would be a ‘brave move’ for a James Bond movie….thats beyond my understanding to fill a descriptive of ‘brave’….anyways, I really have spent more time on this ‘pondering’ than I should have done today and have lots still to do in my day, as I say…it wasn’t really my intention to engage with the topic but you asked directly so I replied with my thoughts…

True enough I suppose.

But I would say that modern Hollywood need to fix their eyes when it comes to roles where beauty standards is a requirement.

That's my view on this topic.

Ok

Forget the lady in question

I was shocked to hear that they were planning to have a non binary person as James Bond’s love interest …

Especially if Hollywood does what they do best when casting nowadays.
