Intrigue grows: who will become the new James Bond?

It happens so: the director is chosen, work on the script is in full swing, but who will play the main role - is still unknown! It was this situation that arose around the next part of the adventures of the legendary 007 agent.

The script for the espionage action movie is created by Neil Purvis and Robert Wade, and the director's seat was taken by Barbara Broccoli. But, the actor for the role of the main super agent was never approved.

Recall that among the main candidates were named: Michael Fassbender, Tom Hardy and Aidan Turner. As a result, Tom Hiddleston came to the finish line, but the director considered him too groomed and not too brutal for Bond's role. This information appeared in the British press.

The old horse does not spoil the furrow?

You will not believe, but Mrs. Broccoli decided not to philosophize craftily, and not to look for a new face for the role of an odious defender of British interests. Instead, she began to take again the assault of Daniel Craig.

Craig starred in three franchise films, in 2015 he flatly refused to continue working on Bond's image. Among the reasons called a knee injury received on the set and criticism of the acting abilities of a British star.
