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 Paris wondering what they could bring to the role.
Could Gérard Lanvin become the Seventh James Bond?
Lanvin’s star has been rising in recent years thank to critically acclaimed roles in Mesrine: Public Enemy Number One (2008), Camping (2006) and Ball and Chain (2002). His commercial appeal is growing, too.
The question for Lanvin now is – what next?
Three reasons Gérard Lanvin would be good for the James Bond franchise

- No other performers could be nearly as cool and broodingly suave as Lanvin.
- It would give Gérard Lanvin a chance to play a lover, as well as a fighter.
