Pierce Brosnan insists the next James Bond should be British not American and admits he 'laments' Amazon's takeover of the iconic spy franchise


Pierce Brosnan has said he doesn't think that the next James Bond should be America.

He was asked about the possibility of reprising his role as an older version of Bond in future films during an interview with GQ, while promoting his new series, 'MobLand' – with the discussion following Amazon MGM Studios' full acquisition of the franchise's rights. In 2012, Disney acquired Star Wars owner LucasFilm for £3.2billion and have since launched a raft of new origins movies, series, and animated spin-offs. Another X user, Mike Beauvais, suggested that the Amazon takeover would lead to a loss in quality control and an endless stream of sequels.
