Wasn't he one of the actors in the running before Craig signed on, Everette, I mean?

[Don Farnsworth]

He could do a spoof i think. Cool guy but a little too comical for bond. Unless they were going back to the roger moore style.

[Livingston]

Yeah definitely agree there. Just remembering his name being tossed around, also remember Ewen McGreggor's name being tossed around as well, so glad they got Craig, cause he's great IMO.

All though on a side note McGreggor does sound a little like Roger Moore in the new Starwars Trilogy. Well, more like Roger Moore than Alec Guiness!

Oh also, yeah Terry Farrell would be a good Bond girl!

Very Bond!! Right down to the whole, "Bashir, Julian Bashir" line. -- same initials. hehe.

She got to be one of those "sexy scientist" types. (Appropriate for Dax, I suppose.)

None of those actors did a bad job at their "Bond" roles that time.

(Love that episode. Seriously. Love it!)

I don't think so. I mean, he was probably considered to play the part, but I don't think they really wanted to choose him as a possible candidate. The main ones on the list were the following:

Clive Owen
Ewan McGreggor
Hugh Jackman
Jude Law
Hugh Grant
Daniel Craig *chosen
Russel Crowe
Orlando Bloom

The list goes on, but I mean those were the main candidates. But yeah, I agree with Don, Everette could only be Bond if it was a spoof.

That is a great episode! Didn't they all have Bond style names as well, like Mona Luvsitt the valet girl, Dax as Professor Honey Bare, O'Brien as Falcon the assassin and Sisko as Dr Noah - it was so brilliantly done!!

[Quark]

Honey Bare, that's classic!

[kevin]

The Memory Alpha entry for that episode is also quite interesting to read the background and trivia for, apparently the real Bond studio, MGM, were not actually very impressed by the DS9 version!!!

[Quark]

I wouldn't be surprised. They are very anal when it comes 007.

[Chris Fawkes]

Anna Faris would be a great Bond girl.
