A Shock To The System
Brosnan really enjoyed the role of playing James Bond and surely he knew he couldn’t do the role forever. Perhaps he thought that he would have some more time, another movie or two, but the axe was wielding. One day Brosnan received a call from producers, he felt blindsided as they told him they were going in a “different way”, a way without him as the lead. Brosnan remained classy throughout and left without kicking up a fuss though, a true gent.

A Different Direction
Brosnan had enjoyed the role of a lifetime as Bond and decided to shift his acting career into a somewhat different direction. From shooting guns and evading bad guys, Brosnan accepted a role where he would need to sing and dance, in musical Mamma Mia! The cast had many stars in it, but there was one cast member he was ecstatic at the prospect of working with- Meryl Streep! Brosnan remembered Streep as that “gorgeous blonde” whom he had “fancied terribly in Drama school.” The one issue with this role was Brosnan’s singing ability, which fans were unconvinced by.
