Actor Nicolas Cage is angry that his American nationality hindered his chance to become James Bond because he thinks the prejudice is petty and stupid.

The star resents the unwritten rule which states the secret spy can only be played by British actors and is devastated he will probably never get another opportunity to try for the role.

He says, "You can cast a Brit to play Bond but you can never cast an American to play him. "I think that is totally unfair."

--Um, did you ever think you might have lost out not because you are American, but because you'd pretty much be the worst James Bond ever?

You Said

George Lazenby is Australian.

Is this where I get to fume about dumb-ass Americans?

Nic Cage would be a terrible Bond. He plays the same neurotic guy in every movie!
