Pierce Brosnan thinks the next Bond comes down to Tom Hardy or Idris Elba

While Bridgeton’s Rege-Jean Page is the odds-on favorite according to bookmakers to be the next James Bond, former 007 himself, Pierce Brosnan, thinks it actually solely comes down to 2 guys to assert the function.

Brosnan was making the rounds selling his new film False Constructive and through a current interview with “People Magazine“, the actor was requested who can be his option to take over for Daniel Craig as James Bond. Whereas he mentioned “generally it turns into wearisome” being requested who he thinks must be the subsequent Bond, his two decisions got here right down to Tom Hardy or Idris Elba:

“Idris Elba involves thoughts. Idris is such a robust presence and such an important former voice tensity. He can be magnificent. There’s Tom Hardy on the market as effectively. Tom can actually chew the furnishings up, simply be a ball boy, each males can. And I feel now that Daniel has left such an indelible footprint, they will go in many various methods. However your guess is pretty much as good as mine, who’s going to be the subsequent Bond. There is not any different franchise prefer it. Nothing.”

Brosnan has been requested this query beforehand and he additionally name-dropped Tom Hardy throughout that dialogue as effectively.  Elba and Hardy are each in style decisions with followers on-line, together with Henry Cavill and Luke Evans. Some on-line chatter gripes about them being of their 40s now, which should not be an issue in any respect however, some assume it would get in the best way of potential longevity within the function. Brosnan additionally took one other second to reward Daniel Craig’s tackle the character whereas additionally reflecting on his personal time as 007:

“Daniel was magnificent and he can stroll away head up, shoulders again. He really left an indelible mark on the franchise. My time and years of doing it, a decade, was one to be cherished and one that could be a reward that retains giving, having performed that function.”

Brosnan performed James Bond over the span of 4 motion pictures, together with Goldeneye, Tomorrow Never Dies, The World is Not Enough, and Die Another Day. I would not name myself an enormous James Bond fan however Brosnan was my favourite particular person to tackle the function earlier than Daniel Craig got here alongside and Goldeneye nonetheless stays considered one of my favourite Bond movies thus far. It is attention-grabbing to listen to who he thinks must be subsequent in line and it just about matches up with the web chatter that’s at the moment on the market.

Do YOU agree with Pierce Brosnan’s decisions for the subsequent James Bond?
