So, she was sorta right.
All those M's look the same. 
I think I remember the M connection being remarked upon when Trainspotting came out and contained this scene:
LOL! Yes. I'm willing.I LOVE knowing that!
Do you do PM Private Readings???
Say, “Yes”!!!
I thought he was one of the best things about Bullet Train tbh, and he has a bit of a thankless task in 28 Years Later. As for Tenet, well frankly only Pattinson comes out of that film looking good...
My only real problem with Tenet is related to the plot, I didn't find anything wrong with his participation...
The music, definitely!
Thinking of Nolan, I think Christian Bale could have been really good as an '00s or maybe also '10s James Bond, especially for reboot (though him also being rebooted Batman could be a bit much unless Bond reboot had instead started in '10s), it was really surprising and disappointing to learn that he really disliked the character/films.
I didn’t know that. I thought I read somewhere that he was hesitant about the role of Batman because, being a Brit, he hoped to play Bond and knew that it wouldn’t be possible to play both, thus if he accepted the Batman role, he’d be excluding himself as 007.
"Awkward" Ashleigh Burton?
Yeah. She's good in small doses.
No real surprise, given the age range that Amazon are supposedly looking at, but we can exclude Taron Edgerton from the running for the next Bond.

If 35 is too old then I guess Aaron Taylor Johnson is out of the running as well.
I think ATJ would be a better fit anyway, even if the stories of them wanting a 20something Bond are wrong. It would not only be a bit on the nose, Taron having done The Kingsman movies but part of the reason why he works well in that role is that he is an unlikely James Bond - shorter and stockier than the typical 007, as well as less classically handsome. Which can admittedly be said of Craig but I don’t see them casting so offbeat twice in a row (plus Craig didn’t come with Kingsman baggage).
Alls I am saying is that, if 35 is really too old for the producers, as rumored, ATJ is also out of the running because he is, in fact, 35.
Coming straight off of The Saint didn't affect Roger Moore's casting.
