Aaron Taylor-Johnson reportedly ready to sign on for the role of James Bond
The ex Kick-Ass has reportedly received an offer, and is expected to respond to it this week. Mission accepted?
“Bond, it's Aaron's job, if he agrees to sign. The offer has officially been made, they are now waiting for his response.”
The source of The Sun prefers to remain anonymous, but she is clear: Aaron Taylor-Johnson reportedly close to signing to replace Daniel Craig in the 007 costume, at the request of producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson himself. The actor said goodbye to the character in No Time To Die, in 2021, and since then, his successor has not yet been chosen, the duo taking their time to find their new ideal James Bond.
“Eon assumes that Aaron will sign his contract in the next few days, they can start preparing for their big announcement”we also read in the British tabloid.
James Bond: Would Barbara Broccoli have set her sights on Aaron Taylor-Johnson?
There have been so many rumors about the new interpreter of James Bond that we prefer to take it with a grain of salt, but this is in any case not the first time that the flagship actor of Kick-Ass is evoked to embody this essential character of British culture. In November 2022, the same newspaper wrote: “Aaron went to do a screen test to be next James Bond in September and the producers loved it, especially Barbara. He is now one of the favorites.”
Recently reviewed in Bullet Trainby David Leitch, and soon starring in his new action film, The Fall Guy, the 34-year-old actor is regularly cited for this role alongside Cillian Murphy, Henry Cabill, Idris Elba and James Norton. The person concerned was also questioned last week on this subject, and responded to The Sun : “I find it charming that people imagine me in this role. It's wonderful. I take it as a great compliment.”
Come on, this time, do we believe it?
