Ever wondered what would happen if your favourite film characters quit the big screen and jumped into the glamorous world of property sales? Neither had we... until now.

We put together a (very serious) ranking of fictional characters and how they'd fare as estate agents in the real world. Get ready for open houses with a twist.

View our top 8 Movie Characters as Estate Agents and tell us your favourite in the poll below ⬇️

😎 1. James Bond – The Smooth Negotiator Specialism: Luxury listings, high-stakes deals, global relocations.

No one closes like Bond. Impeccably dressed, charming under pressure, and never misses a deadline (or a villain). Turns up to valuations in an Aston Martin and always knows where the best wine cellar is hidden. Viewings include complimentary martinis (shaken, obviously). Clients love him. Rivals fear him.

Downside: Constantly going missing on "missions". High travel expenses and answering the phone whilst on a speedboat...

🧙‍♂️ 2. Gandalf – The Wise Old Valuer Specialism: Period properties, country homes, quirky cottages.

No one knows a property's backstory quite like Gandalf. He'll give you a valuation that accounts for market trends, ancient magic, and whether the moon is in retrograde. Carries a staff instead of a clipboard. Negotiates with wisdom, patience, and just a little bit of wizardry.

Catchphrase: "You shall not... accept below asking price!"

Downside: Takes three hours to write a Rightmove description.

🦖 3. Dr. Alan Grant (Jurassic Park) – The Dinosaur Property Specialist Specialism: Victorian homes, anything with "character" or fossils.

Loves a period feature. Wooden beams? Check. Stone fireplace? Even better. He’ll tell you the geological age of the bricks in your driveway and probably dig up a fossilised fern in your garden.

Downside: Occasionally gets distracted by large birds or rustling hedges.

🤖 4. The Terminator – The Relentless Sales Machine Specialism: Fast sales, aggressive negotiation, never missing follow-ups.

Doesn't take no for an answer. Sends email chasers like clockwork. Turns up to every appointment exactly on time. Doesn’t talk much, but somehow always gets the deal over the line. Great with sales progression. Not so great with small talk.

Catchphrase: "I’ll be back... with a full asking offer."

Downside: Slightly intimidating on viewings.

💃 5. Mary Poppins – The Family Home Guru Specialism: Charming semis, homes near schools, family-friendly areas.

Turns every house into a dream home. Has a sixth sense for tidy hallways, hidden storage, and the perfect breakfast nook. Every child loves her. Every parent trusts her. Comes equipped with her own cleaning supplies and possibly a small band of animated penguins.

Bonus: Leaves behind a fresh smell of lavender and productivity.

Downside: May float away mid-instruction.

🙈 6. Gollum – The Worst Estate Agent Ever Specialism: Hoarding. Not selling anything. Ever.

Obsessed with the property he has and won’t let anyone else near it. Prone to talking to himself during viewings. Thinks "open plan" means spying through the keyhole. Once listed a cave as "cosy with natural rock features".

Catchphrase: "My precioussssss... buyer lead."

Downside: Everything.

🖤 7. Darth Vader – The Dark Deal Closer Specialism: High-pressure negotiations, distressed sales, land deals.

Brings an intimidating presence to every boardroom. Vendors get results fast, mainly because no one dares to pull out of a deal. Uses the Force to get signatures and extract mortgage approvals. Not a fan of open-plan – prefers Death Star chic.

Catchphrase: "I find your lack of urgency... disturbing."

Downside: HR complaints are common. Chokes out competition – literally.

🎀 8. Elle Woods – The Glamorous Closer Specialism: High-end interiors, home staging, Instagrammable homes.

Bright, bold, and unstoppable in heels. Elle brings energy, legal knowledge, and a pink pen to every deal. Smashes listing presentations with charm and sparkle. Makes everyone feel fabulous at viewings. Probably hosts TikTok live tours.

Catchphrase: "What, like selling a house is hard?"

Downside: Might insist on pink feature walls in every home.

So, who would YOU choose to sell your home? While we can’t promise you lightsabers or time-traveling DeLoreans, we can promise local expertise, honest advice, and a personal touch.

Want to meet a real-life agent who combines the best bits of Gandalf, Bond, and Mary Poppins? Give us a call at Property Bee. We’ll bring the charm, the knowledge, and the coffee. (No judgement if you dress up for the viewing.)
