John Travolta allegedly turned down an offer to take over as James Bond.

According to The Sun, the actor was the first choice of producers, who later opted for Daniel Craig to fill Pierce Brosnan's shoes.

Travolta said, “Bond is one of the most dynamic roles in history, one of the most extreme and career defining commitments an actor can make. After careful consideration I feel it might not be best for me at this point.”

You Said

It's time for Mr. Bond to retire. Travolta as Bond? Craig is bad enough.

Travolta is "James Bond, trying to Stay Alive" (cue Bee Gees music)

Sick. Gay music for a gay actor.

Ecch.

It would have been a comedy of errors as we watched Travolta attempt to both act and speak English properly.

It must have been a remake of Octopussy!
