    After Pierce Brosnan times there were few actors considered for the role. Christian Bale (after American Psycho preformance) said it is a story about an old Englishman and the series is 'too British'. Hugh Jackman said he was X-Men so didn't want to do more heroes. Henry Cavill was way too young, now he is to famous (Superman, Man from U.N.C.L.E, Mission Impossible) so I do not think he will be chosen. About Clive, producers refused to offer gross profit points for any movies Owen made in the role. (!!!) All 007 actors were unknown before they became secret agents. Also it is a commitment for + - 20 years, you need to accept and do lots of things (commercials, interviews etc.). I am not sure how many actors would be happy to do it. Will see who will be after Daniel is retired! :-)

      @Matthew Caughey the 460 in few configurations produced around 365 HP to almost 400 hp. It's not something to laugh it, both the e38 and Econoline weigh very similar.
