James Bond instead of Daniel Craig.Appearing on the Acting For Others podcast, the Doctor Who star said he had no idea he was being eyed for the role until recently.Asked if he’d ever been in the running, Tennant said: “I never believed I had, until I worked with a director recently who had worked with the Broccolis who said, ‘Yeah, you were on the list that time.’“I was like, ‘What time? What are you talking about?’ He went, ‘Yeah, the last time.’ I suppose it must have been Daniel Craig, before that I would have been a child.”He added: “I think it was quite a long list and I don’t think I was ever very near the top of it. But apparently so.”The role of 007 went to Daniel Craig in 2006. The actor went on to play the secret agent for 15 years before bowing out in No Time To Die.Earlier this month, producer Michael G.
'Wild Croc's' Matt and Kaia on how Steve Irwin’s legacy influenced their show: ‘He’s got to always live on’
05.10.2022 - 15:29 / foxnews.com
Matt and Kaia Wright are exploring the Australian outback, a task they say would not have been possible without Steve Irwin opening that door so many years ago. Their new Netflix show, "Wild Croc Territory," features Matt and his team as they explore the Australian outback, looking to catch and relocate crocodiles and other dangerous animals living in the bush.
While speaking with Fox News Digital, Matt said he was proud of the comparison to Irwin and thankful for the work he did in the past, which made it possible for him to pursue his own dreams. "The only person to compare me to is pretty much Steve Irwin and Bear Grylls," Matt said.
"What Steve did to pave the way for Australian outback shows and crocodiles, and showcasing Australia in a fantastic way, his legacy is he's got to always live on." Matt Wright often gets compared to Steve Irwin because they're both Australian crocodile hunters. (Courtesy of Netflix © 2022) Matt understands the comparison, saying since they are "both Aussies and [they] both have caught crocs," people see them as one and the same, and he feels "it’s unfortunate that he’s not around to have a chat" about their mutual admiration for wildlife.
While he enjoys the comparison to Irwin, he also wants to make it clear that he is not trying to copy what Irwin did and that his show will be different, noting that his show also features elements of ranch life. "We are totally different people and what we do up in the territory," he said.
"It's still got crocs in it, but it's also got a lot of elements of just the station life, cattle stations and … ranch life. Living, mustering, rounding up cattle and bull-catching." Although their interests aligned, Matt and Irwin weren’t able to meet before Irwin’s

Kevin Spacey Questioned About ‘American Beauty’ Masturbation Scenes in Cross-Examination
Kevin Spacey finished testifying on Tuesday in the $40 million sexual misconduct lawsuit brought against the “House of Cards” star by Anthony Rapp. The Oscar-winning actor was cross-examined by Rapp’s attorney Richard Steigman, and remained calm, smirking at points, as he was grilled about his drug use and memories of encountering Rapp in 1986 when they were both appearing in stage productions. Rapp was 14 and starring in “Precious Sons”; Spacey was on Broadway in the Jack Lemmon-led revival of “Long Day’s Journey Into Night.” The conversation was meandering — Spacey continued to deny Rapp’s claims that he tried to seduce the then-teenager — and at one point even touched upon a key sequence in “American Beauty” in which Spacey’s character Lester Burnham masturbates to an image of his daughter’s best friend bedecked with rose petals while lying in an oversized tub.
