Blind Item #7
This closeted A= list mostly television actor from a hit pay cable show is trying to keep himself deep deep in the closet to have a chance to be cast as the next star of this decades long movie franchise. They would never hire someone who is openly gay.
Skarsgard?
ReplyDeleteKit Harrington? If it’s him, then what about all that stuff about him cheating with Emilia Clarke?
ReplyDeleteSam heughan/Bond
ReplyDelete+1 Tricia, we know it's not Star Trek
ReplyDeleteRichard madden
ReplyDeletegame of thrones and bond
DeleteRichard Madden/Bond
ReplyDeleteAlthough there is an argument to be made that film Bond was metrosexual.
ReplyDeleteWhich decades long franchise would never hire someone openly gay? Star Wars, Indy, Muppets and Marvel are all at Disney, whose reputation in that area is pretty good. There's new LoTR coming from Amazon, but I'm not sure it counts as the same franchise as the Peter Jackson films. What other franchise is at least twenty years old, and still making blockbusters?
ReplyDeleteOh, Bond is a good guess.
ReplyDeleteSo producers doesn't want black Bond and gay Bond and "God forbid" female Bond? Hm, I thought we as human society finally grown, but apparently not.
ReplyDeleteI do enjoy reminding my Jamie obsessed female friends that Sam is in the closet, messes with their time traveling hussy fantasies ;)
ReplyDeleteRobb Stark and Bond
ReplyDeleteLet's hear it for repeat blinds!
ReplyDeleteBirdie we'll grow as a society when we stop watching endless rehashing of comic-book adventures glorifying what in real life is a CORRUPT and evil government power, as proven in their ILLEGAL interference in America's presidential election and their abuse and intrusiveness into the citizenry of the UK--MI-6 is garbage--as is our CIA and FBI. They are not heroes.
ReplyDeleteLiev Schreiber? Ray Donovan has been on for a bit now. Not as good a guess as Sam Heughan, though.
ReplyDeleteI'm going with either Richard Madden or Sam Heughan for Bond. Leaning more towards Richard since his name came up for Bond so much though he's not on pay cable anymore. I know Enty loves the Sam closeted rumours though. So I won't be surprised by him either.
ReplyDeleteRichard Madden is too young for the part. Too short too, and bland as well. He'd make a good character actor, not lead. Not when you look like an accountant. As for the other guess, Sam Heughan has a gay face. No closet can hide his gayness which is plain to see.

ReplyDeleteSam H was just on Kelley/Ryan discussing how he would love it and auditioned for it years ago... also laying on heavy with the “date” they were gonna set up for him..
ReplyDeleteRyan and he work out at same gym and totally did the “bro hug” it was hilarious.
Ryan was drooling lol
Am really over the persecution of gays in the form of fascistically requiring a grand announcement of their sexuality--and the stalking and innuendo that goes with it. Not exactly Life Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness is it?
ReplyDeleteLike the Richard Madden guess. He's now on Bodyguard, which is quite good and he'd made a good Bond. Not married - has dated a plethora of gorgeous gals with no serious girlfriends I can tell. Thick Scottish accent. Handsome. Bodyguard was pretty intense. He'd make a great Bond. I just wish he'd work with someone to make him speak just a little bit clearer because I often had to rewind several times to understand what the heck he was saying.
ReplyDeleteDumb question, but if it's such common knowledge that whoever it is remains closeted wouldn't the producers/casting people know this anyways?
ReplyDeleteRichard Madden. Bond.
ReplyDeleteI'm newer here (like 2/2018), but jesus christ is all of hollywood gay???
ReplyDeleteYes.
DeleteI wish James Bond would turn out to be gay or bi.
ReplyDeleteRob stark would make a great bond, just get him a beard and we are golden.
ReplyDelete@Basil, The blind says, "They would never hire someone who is openly gay."
ReplyDeleteThe producers only care about the oblivious fans with no gaydar who get their info from the kneepads media outlets.
I’m going with KJ Apa on this one
ReplyDelete@Brayson thanks-
ReplyDeleteJames Marsden!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhy can’t they just hire Christian Bale for Bond and be done with it??
ReplyDeleteA bisexual Bond would be so...sexy.
ReplyDeleteIf a bisexual bond was an option I'd throw out John Barrowman so he can basically reprise Captain Jack but in a tuxedo instead of a WW2 uniform.
ReplyDeleteIt makes sense. If you want a gay Bond type character, WRITE HIM!!!
ReplyDeleteWe don't have a finite ability to make new stories, despite what Hollywood seems to think.
Make all new movies based on all new stories and make all kinds of Bond type characters. Make them gay, black, Indian, trans, or make them women.
Good grief, the lack of creativity in that town blows my mind.
Def Richard Madden. It’s been confirmed that he’s in talks for the next bond movie. I’m still holding out hope for Idris Elba! There legit would never have been a more perfect actor for bond than Elba.
ReplyDeleteI strongly believe that the next Bond will be a ginger.
ReplyDeleteAnd he will make Billions.
I may be the unpopular vote, but I have never had gaydar from Kitt.
ReplyDeletefor me Richard Madden seems very hetero, ot at least much more than Heughan and Hiddleston
ReplyDeleteIDC if SH is gay he is gorgeous an appears to be a real down to earth nice guy. I think he may play a great bond. He would fill out the suit nicely. Also reminds me of the Sean Connery rugged look.
ReplyDeleteRichard Madden would be a wonderful James Bond. Good looking and Scottish as the original Bond was but I really hope he does not became James Bond because JB is a character that needs to fuck off, I'd prefer to see Richard play some good modern characters and not an outdated fuckwit like James Bond.
ReplyDeleteRichard deserves better than Bond!
The Bond rule, with the exceptions of Connery and Brosnan, is never cast an obviously great Bond. So if you think someone would be a great Bond, odds are they will never cast him.
ReplyDeleteWhy would a gay or bisexual bond be sexy? Genuinely curious.
ReplyDeleteAlso, it's probably that Sam guy. Don't know who he is though but I don't think it's Madden.
This is Sam Heughan. He has been open about wanting Bond. Richard Madden dated Jenna Coleman quite seriously for 4 years and has been dating Ellie Bamber for over a year. Richard has confirmed in recent interviews that he has not been approached about Bond, no matter what the UK tabs say.
ReplyDeleteIf they pick Sam for Bond, the franchise will definitely get more female fans. Plus Sam is Scot and the most charming little pie. Met him in Edinburgh and he was the sweetest.
ReplyDeleteThis one is definitely Richard Madden. Hit pay cable show is Game of Thrones and decades long franchise is 007 Bond.
ReplyDeleteI personally think he'd make a great Bond.
I do think the people that make a movie with a gay superhero stand to reap a fortune.
ReplyDeleteKJ Apa.
