«I thought, look what happened to poor Sean, he got stuck there for like three decades.»
In 1973, Roger Moore took over the baton as 007, James Bond, from Sean Connery and just a few years later, Mad Max star Mel Gibson was actually approached by MGM to take over. Which he didn’t want to, and so turned it down. The idea of a tuxedoed, young Mel in the role of the world’s greatest spy is certainly tantalising as we at Gamereactor think he could have shouldered the role quite well.
