James Bond’s producer takes a leave handing it over to Amazon but it’s unclear who’ll be the next Bond. Is it Henry Cavill? Deets inside.
Barbara Broccoli sells James Bond to Amazon after holding it on for 63 years. It’s a huge change for the franchise. However, as the iconic character lives on after the transition, the main question remains, who will be the next Bond? Even though there have been quite a few names surfacing all over, including Henry Cavill and Theo James, nothing has been confirmed yet.
After buying the franchise for a billion dollars, Bezos put the next Bond film into works. The production team is trying to find the appropriate successor for the legendary Daniel Craig as Bond as the actor retired from the film franchise in 2021 with No Time to Die. It’s been 4 years since his exit, and still, no actor has been confirmed for the role. As much as it’s difficult to play the spy character, it will be equally challenging to live up to Craig’s legacy.
Among a lot of actors who are running in the race to be the next James Bond, Henry Cavill is the one who holds an impressive rating. For the unversed, he had previously auditioned for the role alongside Daniel Craig in 2005 and lost it to the blonde actor. He was rejected back then because he was too young and unsophisticated for the role even after making it to the final round. However, now, the Superman actor was not in Broccoli’s good books which held him back from making the cut.
