Every man, at some point in his life, wishes he could be James Bond. And with the news that Daniel Craig may well be out as 007, there are a whole bunch of actors from London to Los Angeles wondering what they could bring to the role.
Could Elliott Gould become the Seventh James Bond?
Gould’s star has been rising in Hollywood in recent years thank to critically acclaimed roles in Ruby Sparks (2012), Friends (1994-2003) and Ocean's Eleven (2001). His commercial appeal is growing, too.
The question for Gould now is – what next?
Three reasons Elliott Gould would be good for the James Bond franchise

- It would give Elliott Gould a chance to play a lover, as well as a fighter.
