uhh...depends on what you mean by a "gay" look, lol. Drag, yes. Highly fashionable, not necessarily. Cross dressing, yes. Tight clothing, not necessarily considering the "emo" look.

Javier Bardem confirmed for Bond



Last updated 00:01 10/07/2011

JAVIER BARDEM: The Spanish actor is set to play a villain.
Javier Bardem has been cast as a villain in upcoming movie Bond 23.
The Spanish actor joins Dame Judi Dench and Naomie Harris for the next installment of the cult franchise.
Javier, who is known for his roles in Eat Pray Love and No Country For Old Men, will be playing the central baddie in the spy movie.
Directed by British filmmaker Sam Mendes, Harry Potter star Ralph Fiennes is also reportedly confirmed for a role in Bond 23.
The Hollywood star, who played evil wizard Lord Voldemort in the hit franchise, is said to be portraying a “darkly complex” character.
Meanwhile, troubled star Amy Winehouse is said to be in the running to sing the new Bond theme tune.
Bond composer David Arnold originally wanted the singer to perform the theme song for Quantum of Solace, but Amy had to pull out due to her personal issues.
But despite her recent cancellation of gigs, the sould diva is still said to be up against fellow British warbler Adele, who Arnold is also believed to be courting to sing the movie tune.
Bond 23 is scheduled to begin production later this year and is expected to hit cinemas in October 2012.
\"it was as if all the emotions in the universe suddenly were coming out of her mouth.\" --Entertainment Weekly music critic Chris Willman.

Amy Winehouse Still Tops Bond Composer David Arnold’s 007 Wishlist

Posted Image
David Arnold, who’s scored every James Bond movie since 1997’s Tomorrow Never Dies, spoke to Matt Mueller shortly before a Memorial Concert in honour of legendary franchise composer John Barry at London’s Royal Albert Hall:

David Arnold knows who he’d love to sing the next 007 theme tune: Amy Winehouse. The British composer is a massive fan of her jazzy vocals and spent two days with the singer when she was being courted to sing the title track to Quantum Of Solace. Winehouse’s personal problems prevented her from taking the gig but, although recent headlines suggest the substance-abuse demons haven’t gone away, Arnold feels she’d make the perfect Bond chanteuse. “She’s absolutely the real deal and the problems she has are part of that genius,” he says. “Of course, until you read the script it’s impossible to say who would be right and you’d consider any of the current great female vocalists, like Adele, Beyonce, Lady Gaga… But if Amy was in a position to be back to full fighting strength, she would be fantastic.”
The Albert Hall concert was also attended by two-time 007 Timothy Dalton and Dame Shirley Bassey, who might be 74 but brought the house down with lung-busting renditions of her signature theme tunes, “Diamonds Are Forever” and “Goldfinger.”
Arnold, whose own Bond scores are infused by Barry’s spirit, says he’s still in the dark about whether he’ll be scoring the next film, Bond 23, which is due to go into production later this year with Sam Mendes at the helm. “Every director has to make their own decision about who they want to work with,” he says. “Every new film, I have to audition the same as anyone else.”
With Barry setting the theme-tune bar so high, Arnold is still in awe of their iconic status – and wonders whether they can ever be bettered. “Will I ever write a song as good as ‘Goldfinger’? Probably not. Will there ever be a Bond song as exciting and surprising as ‘Goldfinger’ again? Probably not. John pretty much did it all and the rest of us are swimming around in the wake of his achievements ever since…”
