There’s been much talk about a potentially homoerotic scene in Skyfall where Javier Bardem’s villain flirts with a tied up Bond and strokes his chest. The secret agent’s provocative comment, “What makes you think this is my first time?” has led to speculation that 007 may actually be bisexual (despite very little evidence).
It appears one fan has taken this and run with it, as they came up with the poster above, which certainly makes any gay subtext far more overt. It’s far steamier than anything we saw in the actual movie, but let’s hope it gives the producers a few ideas for the next one (it won’t, but we can always hope).
Skyfall has certainly gotten a lot of people’s imaginations running, with many claiming it’s one of the best Bonds ever (although I know a lot of people who thought it was just another 007 adventure with little to mark it as special). It’s already the most successful film in the history of the franchise, with $678 million grossed to date and still climbing fast.
The image above has gone viral since it first popped up over at Reddit, garnering 10s of thousands of views. It certainly suggests there’s a lot of interest in a gay Bond.
