The new movie “James Bond” is still in the difficult task of finding the ideal actor who can wear the suit, order the martini and save the world. Since Daniel Craig left the license to kill, many names have emerged about who the next 007 could be, but none have received official endorsement.
Among the other actors rumored to play Bond are reportedly already-tested actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson, “Bridgerton” star Regé-Jean Page; former “Game of Thrones,” Richard Madden; “Crazy Rich Asians” heartthrob Henry Golding; Oscar winner Dev Patel; the star of the expensive and upcoming “Formula 1”, Damson Idris, among others.
Recently the producers of “James Bond” and directors of Eon Productions, Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson, those responsible for finding the MI6 agent, highlighted the search parameters.
The star, in addition to being British, has to be in her 30s (or a little more) since the franchise demands at least 10 years of contract, ethnicity is not a problem when choosing and mainly, they want the chosen one bring something unique to the table, in the same way that the six agents before him did.
Now “The Hollywood Reporter” published an article encouraging people to predict 2025 in terms of cinema. One of the well-known predictions is that the new James Bond has a first and last name: Josh O’Connor.
According to THR, the actor who was Prince Charles in seasons 3 and 4 of “The Crown and was part of Luca Guadagnino’s recent film “Challengers” is the ideal one since his career is close to achieving stardom and he Although it has fame, it is not very familiar to the public.
The site also maintains that Josh O’Connor has a seductive smile, charisma to spare and more to be the next “James Bond.”
At the moment there is no official confirmation or denial, the truth is that 2025 will surely be the year to reveal the seventh Bond and the 26th film of the legendary franchise.
