The Toronto Sun talked to Clive Owen about all the crazy rumors that he is going to be the next James Bond after Pierce Brosnan steps down.

The trouble is, says the amiable Owen, nobody has offered him anything to do with James Bond -- and until somebody does, he does not want to join in the speculation.

"That's exactly what they are -- rumours!" Owen says. "There has never been anything substantial underneath them. It's reared up so many times now. I'll deal with it, I'll think about it, if it ever becomes a fact.

"I learned a long time ago in this game that there is a lot of bulls--t and, if you worry about things that are not factual, you end up wasting a lot of time. If ever there is an official approach, or somebody talks properly to my representatives, I'll think about it. But, until then, I read what you read. No, no, no, no ... I honestly do not think about it."

"James Bond 21" - with Pierce Brosnan! - is targeting a November, 2005 release date.

Clive Owen as Bond? with that nose.
How can he save the world when he looks like he can't duck. Or is it he can't save the world when he looks like a duck.

That is very unkind and in no way fair comment. Saying that it does look as if Corp Klinger is home from Korea.
