Sunset Blvd.'s Tom Francis has apparently been auditioned to play James Bond, thoughts?

I loved him in Jamie Lloyd's Sunset Blvd! And, of course, he's a Brit. I, for one, think he's a little young for the role and green in terms of film work. I'm also a little surprised he's up for roles this big as I only know him from theater, but I guess Sunset really launched him! And he does have a lot of sex appeal even for a younger man.
