It’s already been nearly a 12 months and a half because the final James Bond movie, No Time to Die, opened in theaters. That was a fairly definitive finish to the Daniel Craig period of the character. (In the event you’ve seen the movie, you understand why.) However James Bond can by no means finish, at the least so long as the films maintain being profitable.
However James Bond can also’t proceed till a brand new actor is chosen for the position. This would be the seventh actor to play Bond within the official movie collection, after Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan, and Craig. To date, we’ve got heard nothing about who may very well be the brand new 007, and even when hints of when an announcement may be coming. That stated, it looks as if we may be getting nearer.
Taron Egerton, who would seemingly should be in the dialog for the brand new Bond purely on the idea of a resume that features starring within the Bond parodies Kingsman, says he’ll not be the following man to chug martinis and play baccarat in opposition to an evil super-villain who wears a watch patch. He advised Whole Movie he is aware of he’s out of the operating for the position as a result of, as he put it “I imply, I believe they’ve already bought somebody, and it isn’t me.”
Now, Egerton may very well be mistaken. He might need been advised there was a brand new Bond by somebody, and that particular person may have been given dangerous or incomplete data. Perhaps the producers are selecting between a handful of finalists and Egerton didn’t make the lower. Or it may actually be the producers have made their decide and simply haven’t finalized the take care of the actor, or they’re nonetheless strategizing one of the simplest ways to launch his (or her?) profession as 007.
Within the meantime, Egerton will subsequent be seen within the movie model of Tetris — actually the filmed story of the making of the unique Tetris sport — beginning on March 31 on Apple TV+.
