I don't think there are many classic men left in Hollywood but Pierce is undoubtably one. At only 38 he was a widower, and then remarried and has stayed faithful to the mother of his children for over twenty years. Not only that but he also still speaks highly of her publicly. AND he's James Bond. Doesn't get any better than that

@hash king LOL Moore is literally a classically trained actor and has many acclaimed roles. His films (other than FYEO) are intentionally tongue in cheek, campy fun. You're entirely wrong that they couldn't go back to lighthearted, witty, ridiculous Bond films. That's what the majority of fans want now, to switch it up. The Craig films got waaay too sappy, and serious, Bond way too moody and emotional. Think about it, it's a spy fantasy series; The new films try very hard to be serious, but it makes no difference because they're still incredibly unrealistic. It's gotten stale at this point, there are a million Bourne rip offs, that film came out 20 years ago. They need to go back to the classic formula...what made Bond legendary in the first place.
Pierce all over my tube feed. Love it. Now there´s a proper sophisticated film star.
This man has only become better and more distinguished with age. Fantastic talent and one of the best Bonds
One of the best-looking men on the planet. Seems like a very grounded and down-to-earth guy. So respectful of his wives. I love that he carries rosary beads with him when he flies. Being a “relaxed Catholic” myself, I can relate. Classy guy.
A hard working actor, totally natural, truly deserves what he has due to all the hard work he does, in and out of films.
I can only hope to be as classy and effortlessly cool as this man when I reach his age. He's up there with Paul Newman, Steve McQueen and James Dean for me.

My dad hasn't seen Black Adam, but im sure he will be pleased seeing the one doing one of the main roles is James Bond himself (from his time era). The world is missing classy men like Pierce thats for sure. I love how he talks about every film he did with true passion, he doesn't see his roles as any small gigs and he gives them full respect. Truly one of a kind.
