Aaron Taylor-Johnson Is Reportedly Taking Over Bond Role From Daniel Craig


Aaron Taylor-Johnson is reportedly set to take over the role of James Bond after Daniel Craig departed the franchise

The popular action film franchise is based on a character created by author Ian Fleming for his James Bond book series. Taylor-Johnson, who also won a Golden Globe for his performance in 2016’s Nocturnal Animals, can next be seen in May’s The Fall Guy, alongside Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt, and August’s Kraven the Hunter, where he plays the titular superhero. “I don’t know if it sounds disingenuous, I said to [ James Bond producer] Barbara [Broccoli] a long time ago, back in 2006, ‘If I do all of these movies, and we get it right, can we kill him off,’ and she said, ‘Yes, you can,’” Craig recalled.
