Could Daniel Radcliffe Be The First Gay Bond?

Daniel Radcliffe, star of Harry Potter, has said he would be delighted to play super-spy James Bond, though he admits he is too short for the role. Radcliffe recently beat 007 Daniel Craig to win the best male award at the National Movie Awards last week so surely he’d be a popular choice?

5ft 7ins Radcliffe, speaking after the ceremony, joked he was too small to play Bond, but he would be interested in the future,

“It takes a big man to turn down the role of Bond. But I’m not sure the world’s ready for a short-arse Bond. Maybe in the future, but the problem is I would still be a short-arse.”

Daniel Radcliffe also revealed he would not shy away from gay roles in the future, as long as the role was good

I am open to suggestions. If it was a good gay role then of course I would do it.”

He even joked that co-star Rupert Grint could be his Bond Girl,

“I would love to be the first gay James Bond and Rupert to be my first leading lady.”

Do you think Daniel Radcliffe would be a good Bond?
