According to around twenty people close to the matter interviewed by the Wall Street Journal, the differences of views are profound. Inspired by the example of Marvel, Amazon would like, according to the American daily, to create a multitude of spin-offs in both films and series. Much to the chagrin of Barbara Broccoli. “She told her friends that she didn't trust Amazon, which relies on algorithms, for a character whose mythos she built through big screen stories and instinct.”
Still according to the Wall Street Journal, she would have described her partners as “fucking idiots” and declared that she could “hold Bond hostage to Amazon for as long as she deems necessary.”applying a principle of his father: “Don’t let temporary people make permanent decisions.”

Barbara Broccoli, here “would like to surprise” would have set his sights on Josh O'Connor. Neither a star nor a complete unknown, since the 34-year-old Englishman played Prince Charles in the series The Crown and recently distinguished himself in the cinema in Lee Miller or as a tennis player-seducer opposite Zendaya in Challengers.
Even if the media cited have a great reputation for seriousness, it is better to remain conditional until no confirmation has been received. Not a problem for fans: after all, in the James Bond saga, there's more than just dying that can wait.
