Judy Craymer, producer to the film, said "Pierce brings a certain smooch factor, and we think he'll have great chemistry with Meryl in a romantic comedy. He was originally set to narrate for both US and UK from Series 12 to Series 14, but withdrew from it for unknown reasons. The film was released for limited screenings on 26 January to average reviews.

On 7 July , Brosnan presented a film at Live Earth in London; he also recorded a television advertisement for the cause. Shortly after the release of Die Another Day, the media began questioning whether or not Brosnan would reprise the role for a fifth time. At that time, Brosnan was approaching his 50th birthday. Brosnan kept in mind that both fans and critics were very unhappy with Roger Moore playing the role until he Moore was 58, but he was receiving popular support from both critics and the franchise fanbase for a fifth instalment.
For this reason, he remained enthusiastic about reprising his role. In October , Brosnan said he considered himself dismissed from the role.
Although Brosnan had been rumoured frequently as still in the running to play , he had denied it several times, and in February he posted on his website that he was finished with the role. Daniel Craig took over the role on 14 October He replied, "I'm looking forward to it like we're all looking forward to it.
Daniel Craig is a great actor and he's going to do a fantastic job". He reaffirmed this support in an interview to the International Herald Tribune, stating that "[Craig's] on his way to becoming a memorable Bond. She was crying, Michael was stoic and he said, 'You were a great James Bond. Thank you very much' and I said, 'Thank you very much. I was utterly shocked and just kicked to the kerb with the way it went down.

The film garnered generally positive reviews. On 23 September , Brosnan became a citizen of the United States but retained his Irish citizenship. Brosnan said that "my Irishness is in everything I do. It's the spirit of who I am, as a man, an actor, a father. It's where I come from. He said: "It amuses me in some respects that they should confuse me with an Englishman when I'm dyed-in-the-wool, born and bred Irishman I don't necessarily fly under any flag.
But no, it doesn't bother me. As an Irish citizen, he is ineligible to receive the full OBE honour, which is awarded only to a citizen of the Commonwealth realms, but he is still allowed the letters "OBE" after his name. In , Brosnan was also awarded an honorary degree from the Dublin Institute of Technology and, a year later, the University College Cork.

Brosnan supported John Kerry in the presidential election and is a vocal supporter of same-sex marriage. In , Brosnan appeared for the fourth time as Bond in Die Another Day, receiving mixed reviews similarly to the former two, but was a success at the box office. Brosnan himself subsequently criticised many aspects of his fourth Bond movie. During the promotion, he mentioned that he would like to continue his role as James Bond: "I'd like to do another, sure.
Connery did six. Six would be a number, then never come back. The request was granted, and for every Bond film, Brosnan appeared in at least two other mainstream films, including several he produced, playing a wide range of roles, ranging from a scientist in Tim Burton's Mars Attacks! In May , Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed the facility.

Brosnan was signed for a three-film Bond deal with the option of a fourth.
In the Chicago Sun-Times, Roger Ebert gave the film 3 stars out of 4, saying that Brosnan's Bond was "somehow more sensitive, more vulnerable, more psychologically complete" than the previous ones, also commenting on Bond's "loss of innocence" since previous films. James Berardinelli described Brosnan as "a decided improvement over his immediate predecessor" with a "flair for wit to go along with his natural charm", but added that "fully one-quarter of Goldeneye is momentum-killing padding.
During this period, he also took the lead in other films including the epic disaster adventure film Dante's Peak and the remake of the heist film The Thomas Crown Affair Brosnan was offered the role of James Bond, but the publicity improved Remington Steele' s ratings and it was renewed, contractually requiring Brosnan to return to the show. This caused Eon Productions to have to look elsewhere for the new While Brosnan was reluctant to discuss losing the Bond role, in part because Dalton was a friend, he appeared in Diet Coke commercials portraying what the Los Angeles Times described as "a dashing Bond-like character", and NBC advertised Noble House with Brosnan dressed in a Bond-like tuxedo.
Legal disputes between the Bond producers and the studio over distribution rights resulted in the cancellation of a proposed third Dalton film in and put the Bond series on a hiatus for several years.
Lauriane Gillieron. Pierce Brosnan. Body measurements Height Compare your height to Pierce Brosnan Your height in cm:. Pierce Brosnan is Who is Pierce Brosnan? Early Accomplishments After high school, he desired to paint and started learning the art when he was 16 but after watching a fire eater perform, he learnt the trick and joined a circus for the next 3 years.
Another noteworthy mention is The Son since Family He is the only child of Thomas and May Brosnan. He also fathers Dylan and Paris with Keely and is now a grandfather of 3. Religion Pierce is a devout Catholic. Connery at a strong 6ft2 did not look gawky at all. He looked the most masculine. I think 6ft is to low for Connery at 6'2 was even looking a bit gawky at times. I'd even go as far as agreeing with grizz that a strong 5'11 guy who is trim can pull it off.
Daniel Craig must be 5'10 flat. His build is too muscular too. Not sure what was going through their head the day he was cast as Bond. Over 6'3 and you're entering the henchman territory,as someone mentioned it's a common practice in the movies that the good guy is always shorter or weaker than the bad guy, some David and Goliath metaphor,I guess. And yes, Fleming's Bond is described as a 6footer,but bear in mind that the book was written in the 50s when UK's national average was 0.
So,IMO, 6'0. Cavill is bang-on perfect for that role, even 10 years after his 1st audition. He even doesn't have to get shredded for the role, Craig's muscular physique worked out perfectly for Bond's box office performance. Even in Remember Me just 7 years ago he looked a good inch taller than Robert Pattinson. He's still close to 6ft1 today. I think at worst a fraction under 6ft1 today. He looks to me like he is in the six-foot range. His arms look disproportionately long, which could indicate he has lost a lot of height.
Surely he can't be just 6'4 like google claims. A guy Joe Mangeniello's size would look ridiculous in the role though And by the way I think rob has Pierce height bang on. In that sense Brosnan and Dalton were the perfect age and heights as Bond. I'm sorry. I'm a traditionalist and Brosnan brought the most authenticity to the role after Connery. Dalton and Moore were on the extreme ends Connery and Moore were the best as bond but Daniel craig and Pierce are tedious. I think having slightly different Bond's was good for the longevity.
And it was also great that they put a 5ft 10ish guy in the role. Had zero effect on the box-office. I also have seen later the photos with Roger and Pierce standing on grass, not the best ground.
But i think Roger is about 0. Today around 5'10 and a half cm. Easily 1in taller. Unless of course they hired a tall cast? Definitely always gave me a 6'2 impression. By his bond days had already started shrinking, he looked tiny in the horrible 3rd. He often looks a weak to strong 6 foot now but he is getting up there.
That and still roughly 6ft1 today, not convinced he's cm range. Could look 6'2 too. Nice blue eyes this man. Having said that you can't rule out the chance that actually were just 6ft1 range. I think tbf to Brosnan in some of those 90s pictures with Dalton and Moore he might have been stood on uneven ground.
Moore you'd have expected to have lost maybe 0. I still think he looks 6ft1 today and was taller peak. In GoldenEye he only looked near an inch taller if that than Famke Janssen. Definitely 6ft range now. My father met him 5 years ago in Hawaii. My old man is a weak 6ft and Pierce had about a quarter of an inch on him. He has that tall appearance about him as well so I'm not surprised people would think the lad is taller than he is.
Years ago, I was surprised to hear he was this height. A solid 6' 2'' is definitely pushing it. David Letterman edged him out a little in Strong 6'1 but not more. Now looks closer to 6'0.
Today seems a strong barefoot. Brosnan was not more than cm but not less than cm. Never looked so tall to me. Solid 1. Wouldn't be a huge leap for him. He once guessed Howard Stern at 5'10"-5'11". You're right, Brosnan's still 6'0" at the very least, and more than likely 6'0. The female actresses in the movie were close to his height.
In the movie he is approached by his Beautiful Neighbour both standing on the front lawn chatting. I was surprised how close in height Pierced looked towards the actress. I would say 1 inch height difference. I never believed Pierce to be 6'0 tall ever. He always came across as a 5'9 guy to me. Today he might be 5'8. Brosnan is cm. That's not because of his death but because I think in The Saint days and the early Bond years he was that mark for sure.
He was cast opposite some very tall actor so it didn't do his height justice, made him look average. I think standing, but in the first pic, you see Brosnan with perfect posture looks barely taller. Roger Moore didn't strike me as someone who kept his peak height a long time either.
If anything, this has made me much less skeptical about Moore's height. Definitely a chance Roger was exactly as tall as he claimed to be. His low was probably cm, so it's not a surprise he could look it. I think a 60's Moore and and an 80's Brosnan were similar. Kirk Franklin.
