Daniel Craig's James Bond replacement won't be discussed until 2022

Who will be next 007?

The new James Bond won't be announced any time soon, as Daniel Craig's replacement isn't even being discussed until 2022.

Producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson opened up about the future of the franchise during an interview on BBC Radio 4's Today on Monday morning (27Sep21), insisting they're "not thinking about" future movies until Craig's final movie, No Time to Die, has been released.

"Oh God no," Broccoli said. "We're not thinking about it at all. We want Daniel to have his time of celebration. Next year we'll start thinking about the future."

"He's been such a great Bond. Those are big shoes to fill. I can't even (think if it's possible)," Wilson added.

Broccoli added of Craig's portrayal: "We're very, very lucky to get him to play this role.

"We could see he was reluctant to do it, because he knew it would change his life, which it obviously has. It's changed his life, but it hasn't changed him. What he's enabled us to do with the franchise is really explore the emotional life of Bond and go into the person and complexity and conflicts that happen within the Bond character."
