For Montalban and Quinn, I felt they were not in the age range I had in mind for Silva, somewhere around Bond's age.
Yeah, although Javier Bardem's not far off 50 himself.

I had a version of Tom Hardy in a film version of Mad Max ever since I saw Fury Road and I had ideas for making a cast for Craig's Bond films with Dalton since Craig reminded a lot of people of Dalton.
He reminded me a lot of Dalton in Casino Royale, particularly the bit before the parkour scenes where Bond's getting annoyed with his contact.
