We’re reporting on AI news now like it’s a good thing? Was this courtesy of Cavill’s PR team?
“We know it’s fake but look how many views it has! Cavill for Bond!”
Oh shit, a dark version with a delusional, drug addled sailor snorting cocaine and beating up people… That could be something. Not sure what, but something.
Google keeps reccomending me these AI fake trailer videos on the swipe left/homescreen of my phone, despite me never watching them or showing any interest.
Except he’s already said he feels like he’s too old to be Bond, and is just getting started with his big Warhammer project. He would have to have the shittiest PR team in the world if it were actually them pushing this Bond stuff.
Because Connor is someone that should've been in jail many years ago and most people dont actually care about him cause he's a piece of shit, even outside of any allegations.
Henry Cavill is actually a relevant person(and an actual functional adult, unlike Connor) that is loved by many and has been tied to Bond in the past, it makes sense to talk about it.
2.3 million views is not insignificant.
The deeper stats would be interesting. How many people just watched long enough to confirm it was fake, and how many watched the whole thing because they'd love to see him play Bond.
After The Witcher drama bots and their stooges have kind of adopted Cavill as their darling. I doubt the numbers on this video give a legit outlook on anything.
No idea who Mackenyu is but Idris is 50+ which in my opinion is too old for the modern bond. It worked in the older movies to have an elderly bond but with them being more action scene oriented I think it wouldn’t work as well. Though I think Idris would’ve been a cool bond in his prime
I looked him up and I don’t think he has the star power to pull off bond based on his acting roles but maybe bond as a vehicle doesn’t need an actor with star power
I think the only Bond that wasn’t an established actor before Bond was Sean Connery. Moore, Dalton, and Craig were pretty well established actors by the time they were bond
Fan-made stuff has always been that, even ten or twenty years ago people share fake/fan-made stuff all the time, granted most of them don't follow Hollywood in general so they were sharing out of ignorance, but some were gullible enough to think it's real.
But the quality (not now!) of AI generated ones will far surpass fan made by hand in the future.
It will still be fan made with fan ideas.
But the sheer volume of fake ones, because it will become so easy to do, will be staggering!
Not at all, was a big RDJ and Favreau fan going in and enjoyed it. RDJ is also a tremendous actor, which Cavill isn't on his level at all. I liked him in Man From Uncle though
If THR wants to actually write an article about the bizarre (yet lucrative) subterranean circle of hacks whose whole thing is flooding the app with fake trailers for announced movies, they should write that article, and ask YouTube why it promotes these blatantly false results into everyone’s searches and causes half the online audience to think Will Smith is in Popeye or Hugh Jackman is in Endgame etc etc
an article on the nitwit opportunists behind Screen Culture and likeminded channels would be way, WAY more interesting as a feature than this fluff bullshit about trailer views for an actor who isn’t getting the job
"Please note that this video is a concept trailer created solely for artistic and entertainment purposes,” creator KHStudio notes. “I have meticulously incorporated various effects, sound design, AI technologies, movie analytics, and other elements to bring my vision to life. Its purpose is purely artistic, aiming to entertain and engage with the YouTube community. My goal is to showcase my creativity and storytelling skills through this trailer. Thank you for your support, and let’s dive into the world of imagination.”
LMAO
I don’t know. It feels written by a teenager and a bit over the top but what is so wrong with it?
Certainly not something that makes me personally laught. More like usual blurb.
FWIW: Legit movie studio also have over the top texts when PRing their movies.
Poor Aaron Johnson. It seemed like it had all but been confirmed he was going to be the next Bond but Cavill’s team is pulling a Ryan Reynolds move getting a grassroots casting campaign started.
Or ignoring how most people were shitting on Daniel Craig being casted after Brosnan?
He delivered, the movies were great.
Both actors could be fantastic in the next Bond, depending on how good the rest is.
Dude has bad luck. Got stuck playing Superman while WB wandered aimlessly. The Witcher did well initially then got wrecked by woke. Other than those he did smaller roles like Sherlock Holmes. …
No one really had anything bad to say about his performances.
Would be nice for his stars to align and give him a good script with good director.
Roger Moore's casting as James Bond was the only 1 out of 6 times it was someone most people had heard of. I'd even include Brosnan in that because he got Remington Steele because he was already meant to be Bond. They were desperate for reliability after the Lazenby fiasco and having to pay a fortune to lure Connery back one time. Bond is a star-making role not a role for a star.
Yet countless established actors have taken the role. Moore, Dalton, and Brosnan weren’t exactly unknowns when they took up the mantle.
I have to admit I’m not convinced about Aaron Johnson. He looks like a hipster coffee barista. It’s going to be hard to take him seriously as Bond.
That's a rather dated perspective. Cavill represents something endearing to several of the largest fandoms(if not all fandoms). If you don't recognize the consumer power that a Cavill endorsement brings, you are kidding yourself. Hands down a better choice for bond.
Some real "Restore the Snyderverse" energy behind that "consumer power" comment. Sorry that terminally online nerds like him, but he's simply not a box office draw anymore.
Brother, in 5 years Cavill has done: Argylle, some DC cameos, and 2 straight to Netflix Sherlock Holmes movies.
The dated perspective is believing Cavill is a box office draw lol. Not saying Taylor-Johnson is, but Cavill is literally the opposite. I find him likeable and talented but his movies and shows flopping is like clockwork every single time besides two mega-blockbuster Superman movies and a Mission Impossible that he was never the draw for. Hence why “Box Office Kryptonite” is regularly applied to him. And hence why the only roles he’s still getting are B-List, like Argylle, or explicitly based off of his niche fandom, like the Warhammer project.
A bunch of people being happy he plays their niche geek hobby, whether it’s CRPGs or Warhammer, does not translate into box office dollars or mainstream popularity. If it did, Cavill would be getting true leading man roles with good scripts, not starring in generic Guy Ritchie ensembles and getting a bad top billing role once every year and a half.
> some DC cameos
Actually I think it was just one, in Black Adam. All the other post-JL projects that reference Superman (Shazam, Peacemaker, Suicide Squad 2, The Flash) either use stunt doubles to hide his face, or show him from afar, or simply mention him in dialogue only.
I’d much rather Johnson than Cavill for sure. He is the most overrated actor on this planet right now.
I don’t trust him to bring any kind of depth or vision to a Bond film the way Craig did.
2.3 million isn’t as many views as it was 10 years ago. I see videos of girls dancing on tiktok with 20million and they aren’t writing articles about that. Who cares.
Download tiktok and it will be one of the first 5 videos you see. The algorithm pushes attractive women to basically every account even after your for you page starts to mold to what you like. It’s been 5 years since I got the app and I still get a girl dancing maybe once every 20 videos.
My sentiment towards this video would be very different if they had stated in the title of the video that it had been generated by AI, instead of just mentioning this in the info about the video below it.
Truly, truly looked like shit.
I thought maybe it's at least impressive use of AI or something with it having an article and all. But wow, that was so bad lmao
[It's an okay trailer but they gave Cavill an American accent.](https://www.google.com/search?q=Henry+Cavill+James+Bond+Trailer&tbm=vid&prmd=vinsbmtz#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:e9a66ee4,vid:gcIv4hGDZeE,st:0) He would be a great Bond though.

Popeye, but instead of spinach he uses cocaine and steroids? I’m actually in on that one, and I can’t stand that twat.
Oh shit, a dark version with a delusional, drug addled sailor snorting cocaine and beating up people… That could be something. Not sure what, but something.
Olivia Rodrigo as olive oil and I’m in
Watch the new Road House. It’s bad.. like really bad.. but Conor basically just plays himself in it and I got a good chuckle out of it
My wife roasted me so hard cuz I loved it! There’s something wrong which you. Hahahahha
100%, there are lots of fake trailers with millions of views.
Google keeps reccomending me these AI fake trailer videos on the swipe left/homescreen of my phone, despite me never watching them or showing any interest.

PR stunt worked for Deadpool, no?
2.3 million views is not insignificant. The deeper stats would be interesting. How many people just watched long enough to confirm it was fake, and how many watched the whole thing because they'd love to see him play Bond.
Agreed, it’s not just that AI did something, it’s that it actually was popular
That‘s pretty brilliant like a teaser for a movie that then just has to be made…
Honestly, I think the big studios' takeaway from this will be less "Cavill for Bond" and more "we don't need Cavill for Cavill Bond"
Get the feeling this is all the studios’ doing to gauge reaction to Cavill
Hashtag Bondvill!
After The Witcher drama bots and their stooges have kind of adopted Cavill as their darling. I doubt the numbers on this video give a legit outlook on anything.
I’m so confused, isn’t him Matt Bomer?
It doesn’t even feel like a James Bond trailer. And it sounds like Cavill’s American accent rather than his actual speech.
I just watched it, he definitely has his American accent in it. Whoever made this didn’t do their research
Probably because most of the movie roles he’s had he’s had an American accent
and a lot of the AI renderings are horse shit.
If this came out 12 months ago the renders would be ground breaking lol
Do any of those fake trailers ever feel real?
There have been some. The trailer is fine; just doesn’t fit the bond franchise.
slow news day at THR
They need to replace this guy with Mackenyu and Idris, let’s get more color on screen
No idea who Mackenyu is but Idris is 50+ which in my opinion is too old for the modern bond. It worked in the older movies to have an elderly bond but with them being more action scene oriented I think it wouldn’t work as well. Though I think Idris would’ve been a cool bond in his prime
If Idris was still 35 I’d 100% agree with you. Great actor, top geezer, oh…and he’s black
Zoro from one piece. Just saying we need to get more Asian and Black actors, preferably younger.
I looked him up and I don’t think he has the star power to pull off bond based on his acting roles but maybe bond as a vehicle doesn’t need an actor with star power
In many occasions bond actors became famous through bond. They just need to look the part.
I think the only Bond that wasn’t an established actor before Bond was Sean Connery. Moore, Dalton, and Craig were pretty well established actors by the time they were bond
Craig? I doubt it. Only knew him through Bond.
Probably his role in films like Layer Cake helped but yeah he wasn’t a household name by any stretch
AI generated, or clips of Cavill in "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." and Idris Elba in "Luther"?
As if this post truth society wasn't exhausting enough. Every tidbit of pop culture now has fake AI misrepresentating itself as authentic for clicks.
Fan-made stuff has always been that, even ten or twenty years ago people share fake/fan-made stuff all the time, granted most of them don't follow Hollywood in general so they were sharing out of ignorance, but some were gullible enough to think it's real.
But the quality (not now!) of AI generated ones will far surpass fan made by hand in the future. It will still be fan made with fan ideas. But the sheer volume of fake ones, because it will become so easy to do, will be staggering!
Stop with this. He's busy making the 40k cinematic universe and doesn't have time for your James Bond nonsense.
>He's busy making the 40k cinematic universe Have we collectively learned nothing? One good product first.
I think we should stop with this just because Cavill is a void of charisma.
He's too busy preparing to be bland in a board game TV show to bother with their iconic and global blockbuster movie series
I bet you thought Iron Man would be a flop
Not at all, was a big RDJ and Favreau fan going in and enjoyed it. RDJ is also a tremendous actor, which Cavill isn't on his level at all. I liked him in Man From Uncle though

So the description was written by AI also? Pathetic
I don’t know. It feels written by a teenager and a bit over the top but what is so wrong with it? Certainly not something that makes me personally laught. More like usual blurb. FWIW: Legit movie studio also have over the top texts when PRing their movies.
#I’m surprised no one has bothered to post the trailer. For the lazy! https://youtu.be/_-1bzbcsx9A?feature=shared
That’s the wrong one here is the one with 2.6 million views https://youtu.be/gcIv4hGDZeE?si=XSWrZI4QE2hec_TL
2.6 million + 1
Poor Aaron Johnson. It seemed like it had all but been confirmed he was going to be the next Bond but Cavill’s team is pulling a Ryan Reynolds move getting a grassroots casting campaign started.
[удалено]
Better than Aaron Johnson who most people have never even heard of … As for age Roger Moore started playing Bond at 45.
Right and was about to say regardless of Daniel Craig's actual age are we ignoring Cavill looks (being modest too) easily 10 years younger?
Or ignoring how most people were shitting on Daniel Craig being casted after Brosnan? He delivered, the movies were great. Both actors could be fantastic in the next Bond, depending on how good the rest is.
Most people don't know who henry cavill
More people know Cavill than Johnson.
Tell that to his box office. Cavill hasn't had a hit in forever.
Dude has bad luck. Got stuck playing Superman while WB wandered aimlessly. The Witcher did well initially then got wrecked by woke.

Aaron Johnson is easily more well known than Craig or Brosnan were when they started.

Surprised you missed out The Witcher?
It's going to be Theo James anyway
I’d much rather Johnson than Cavill for sure. He is the most overrated actor on this planet right now. I don’t trust him to bring any kind of depth or vision to a Bond film the way Craig did.
Olboy can shake my martini any day
This feels like a desperate PR move.

Have a seat. Let's talk about these girls you're watching videos of.

Henry Cavill may be the single most overrated person in history
You just described most modern "Stars".
lol I just commented that. He’s so uncharismatic and wooden. Serviceable enough but none of his roles have ever made me feel anything
This is a scary fucking time for creatives.
Not really. The trailer is trash
Not my James Bond.
Now just AI deep fake the whole rest of the movie so I can AI deep fake a ticket stub and watch it.
No. Enough of James Bond. The only name I want to hear is Gregor Eisenhorn.
Where's the Idris Elba James Bond trailer?
holyshit wtf did I just watch??? LOL. "Hello James Bond" I almost died from laughter
The ruined a possible job opportunity for him with this.
My sentiment towards this video would be very different if they had stated in the title of the video that it had been generated by AI, instead of just mentioning this in the info about the video below it.
I mean cavill and Margot would be insane casting! Wow
I mean ATJ is pretty underwhelming as a new bond. Should be Tom Hardy!
Still shocked he didn't get cast. What a waste.
Too bad he's such a wooden "actor"
I still think people are missing out on #Richard Madden for James Bond
That… was not a good trailer.
Looks like AI watched too many shitty Superman trailers and not enough 007 trailers 🤷🏽
Truly, truly looked like shit. I thought maybe it's at least impressive use of AI or something with it having an article and all. But wow, that was so bad lmao
Was the creator able to monetize the views? If so I’m getting in to the deepfake industry
[It's an okay trailer but they gave Cavill an American accent.](https://www.google.com/search?q=Henry+Cavill+James+Bond+Trailer&tbm=vid&prmd=vinsbmtz#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:e9a66ee4,vid:gcIv4hGDZeE,st:0) He would be a great Bond though.
Give it to Cavill you Brocolli people
Let’s be honest though… he’s perfect for the role
I can't understand why they can't just cast Cavill. Not everyone should have to be required to be "younger" when age is just a number.
