Chris Hemsworth's telling comments on James Bond role resurface amid new chatter that the Aussie actor could be the next 007


Chris Hemsorth is being eyed as a potential new James Bond.

Chris expressed his interest in the role while talking with Balance magazine, after the publication pointed out his critically-acclaimed performance as British Formula One driver James Hunt made him a perfect candidate. Ms Broccoli and Mr Wilson have fiercely protected the image of the British hero since taking over Eon Productions, the UK company behind previous Bond films, in 1995. Eon was founded by her father and Mr Wilson's stepfather, Albert 'Cubby' Broccoli, who bought the film rights to the martini-sipping, womanising spy from Bond creator Ian Fleming in 1961.
