Apparently, The Studio wants Helena Bonham Carter to Play the Main Villain in "BOND 25" (which will be Directed by Danny Boyle) while everybody else thinks that the role will go to Angelina Jolie.

Gender schmender. But those specific casting rumours disappoint me. If I never see Jolie in a movie again I'll be happy, let alone in real or tabloid news.
Here's some female choices that'd rock the ship: Mae Whitman, Alicia Vikander, Karen Gillan...
What's next, Meryl Streep declined it??

Sounds like Bond is going down the same rabbit hole as Star Wars.

Neither isn't bad but someone else like Charlize Theron or Salma Hayek could be cool too.

I really Really REALLY hope that Angelina Jolie gets the Role. I think that that would be Freaking AWESOME!

Sounds like Bond is going down the same rabbit hole as Star Wars. I think it always was, just much more subtle about it. They cannot get funding or distribution unless they meet the requirements of the gatekeepers. So either they satisfy those demands or they just hire people who have that way of thinking. I didnt think James Bond had much of any politicizing in the 70s but then someone pointed out the gay undertones injected here and there.

I'd be down with that. Rosa Klebb, Irma Bunt, and Electra King were all great.

Dont get all this hate just because its a woman. How many males have played bond villains? Why not freshen it up and give us a female Bond villain?
I would be super annoyed if they changed the next James Bond into a woman though.

I am Very Much Happy that the Next " JAMES BOND" Movie Main Villain may be a Woman ( It's About Freaking Time!). It is just that I have been wanting for many many years for Angelina Jolie to actually Play the Main Villain in a " BOND" Movie and now that there is a possibility that it may actually happen, I am so very very nervous over it (I also feel like Fate is just Playing Games with Me).

We're long overdue for another central female villain since there hasn't been one since The World is Not Enough. I hope the writing and acting is up to par if it's true.

I would only watch if Jolee got the part. They'll pick Carter.

I don't mind a female villain, but the two possibilities listed are pretty uninspired choices.

That would be all politics if that happened given that BS being forced on many today in areas of that sort.
Hollywood is messed up... like even on American Idol with Katy Perry(who was a judge in the recent season earlier this year), you can see she forced that transgender person to go far as she could based not on talent but simply because the person was transgender. her politics blind her from making proper decisions at times and this was a perfect example of that.
basically that transgender person was no where near as good as she made em out to be as that person was simply too theatrical which does not really work for a show like Idol who's trying to find singers who can sell records etc. so she's shoving her political views on the masses as it was obvious as not long after she no longer had power to force that transgender person forward they where knocked out by the general public as there was some people who could have easily made it to the live shows etc but did not because of BS decisions like that.
hell, I am even confident she let another person in because they were a minority more than the person actually being better than another person as to me this seemed pretty obvious given the person she let in was clearly a weaker singer than someone else at that point who should have made it instead.
basically these two examples were the most obvious examples of Katy Perry letting politics take priority over talent in this past season of American Idol.
p.s. you can even see stuff similar enough to that happen on America's Got Talent here and there but it's usually not as bad as that particular case I explained above which stood out to me as obvious politics taking priority over talent.

I hope you are not speaking of Michael cause he is a fabulous talent. If you are speaking of the Hispanic woman, then yes. Or Jurnee, then yes
