The movie features a story element referring to "L'Americain" (The American). Reportedly, George Clooney was once considered for the role of James Bond for Casino Royale (2006). Apparently, producer Barbara Broccoli originally wanted Clooney for the role, and eventually met him to discuss the part, but Clooney turned it down, saying, "I'm American, and it wasn't right for James Bond. James Bond is English and not American." Clooney has been likened to the late great American movie star Cary Grant, who was considered to play James Bond during the 1960s, and was the best man at the wedding of Dana Broccoli and co-founding Bond film franchise producer Albert R. Broccoli, and father of Barbara. Clooney later starred in an espionage picture called The American (2010), which was released between Quantum of Solace (2008) and Skyfall (2012), in a year where there would have been a Bond movie with a two-year cycle.
