The Sun: Aaron Taylor-Johnson to Take the Role of James Bond
Howell Davies and Ellie Henman, reporting for The Sun:
Brit actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson is taking his martinis shaken, not
stirred, after being formally offered the job as the new James
Bond. Insiders said the Kick-Ass movie star is expected to
accept the role as 007, taking over from Daniel Craig, who has
played MI6’s most famous spy for 15 years.
Eon Productions, which makes the spy thriller films, is on course
to start shooting this year.
A source said: “Bond is Aaron’s job, should he wish to accept it.
The formal offer is on the table and they are waiting to hear
back. As far as Eon is concerned, Aaron is going to sign his
contract in the coming days and they can start preparing for the
big announcement.”
Take it with a grain of salt, as The Sun is a News Corp tabloid and there are conflicting reports from more reputable publications, but I loved Taylor-Johnson in Bullet Train (and loved Bullet Train itself).
