Obviously, nothing came of it, and I wouldn't be surprised if it were just idle rumors.

As Bond is British, I assume that Brolin would have played him that way, although whether he'd have sounded British is another matter. It sounds as if he's trying to downplay his own accent in the clip, I think.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07224781868125924337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-48677138659080741542014-08-13T09:02:53.908+01:002014-08-13T09:02:53.908+01:00There's never been an American James Bond thou...There's never been an American James Bond though - Lazenby was Australian and Pierce Brosnan was Irish wasn't he ?
