 | Moore Junior up for Bond
ROGER MOORE’s son Geoffrey
is in line to take over his dad’s old James Bond
role.
The 37-year-old is on the shortlist
of candidates to replace current 007 Pierce
Brosnan for the next movie.
He has
already attended a read-through for the part
with producer Barbara Broccoli following the
collapse of contract negotiations between Bond
bosses and Brosnan.
It is 19 years since
Moore senior, the third official movie Bond,
made way for Timothy Dalton following A View To
A Kill.
A source said: “Geoffrey is like
a real-life Bond. He looks the part,
too.
“He’s a dashing upper-class
restaurateur who lives a real jet-setting
lifestyle.
“If anything, he is more like
James Bond than his dad.”
Geoffrey, who spends much of his time in
the posh Swiss resort of Gstaad, owns trendy
eateries Hush and Shumi in London.
He has
dabbled with acting in the past, appearing on TV
and in three movies, including secret agent
caper Fit To Kill.
But Geoffrey is up
against some serious competition for the part.
Gosford Park star Clive Owen, X-Men actor Hugh
Jackman and Jude Law have all been tipped as
potential Bonds.
The next movie, the
21st, is scheduled for release in November next
year.
