23 Possible Bond 23 Villains
The stars, the schemes, the gimmicks...
By Simon KinnearFeb 3rd 2011Javier Bardem
The Villain: A Spanish legend and awards-hog, who can play both suave and sadistic, Biutiful and bug-ugly. No wonder he's confirmed Bond bosses want him as Bond 23's big bad.
Once he's read the script, we've got all our fingers crossed that he'll sign on the dotted line to appear. We'd prefer it if he signed the contract using a pen that doubles-up as a lightsaber or something.
Bond Backstory: Already in Felix Leiter's sights as a barbaric drug cartel boss, it turns out Bardem is really channelling funds to Quantum. But, in a third-act twist, it's revealed that Bardem is Quantum himself. Mental.
Bond Villain Quirk: A walking stick that's actually a cattle-prod.
But, every Bond baddie needs a few henchmen, so we've compiled a list of actors who could provide back-up to Bardem...

Please no Fassbender...only because he is my first choice to replace Craig when he eventually leaves the role. Anybody asks me who should be the next Bond...reply, Michael F*cking Fassbender!!

I always thought Rutger Hauer would be a good Bond villain with Tom Hardy as some kind of hard nut henchman

Am I the only person who is trying to understand the fascination with Fassbender?? Had never even seen the guy before Inglorious Bestards.Stick him in a henchman that gets dealt with easily by bond, but not a flow blown villian. I mean really he wasn't even that good in IB, was pleased when he got killed in that.
