[toddly6666]

“That actor was incredible in _____ movie! Let’s cast as the next James Bond villain!

These are the ones who I know:

Klaus Maria Brandauer (Never Say Never Again): Mephisto

Sean Bean (Goldeneye): Patriot Games

Jonathan Pryce (Tomorrow Never Dies): Brazil

Robert Caryle: (The World is Not Enough): Trainspotting

Mathieu Amalric (Quantum of Solace): The Diving Bell and the Butterfly

Javier Bardem (Skyfall): No Country For No Men

Christoph Waltz (Spectre): Inglourious Basterds




Can anyone else recommend their best film before their James Bond villain roles (specifically before their James Bond movies - not the ones post-James Bond) of:

Joseph Wiseman, Robert Shaw, Gert Frobe, Donald Pleasence, Adolfo Celi, Telly Savalas, Charles Gray, Yaphet Koto, Christopher Lee, Curd Jurgens, Michael Londsdale, Julian Glover, Louis Jordan, Kabir Bedi, Christopher Walken, Jeroen Krabbe, Robert Davi, Sophie Marceau, Toby Stephens, Mads Mikkelsen.

I know that actors like Lee or Walken have many great ones but Im not sure which one is their best pre-James Bond.
