A-Lister Makes His Pick for Next ‘Tall and Handsome’ James Bond

Mario Anzuoni / REUTERS George Clooney has weighed in on the race to become the next James Bond, and he already has a clear favorite. The Oscar-winning actor and director threw his support behind British star Callum Turner, arguing the 36-year-old has all the qualities needed to take over cinema’s most famous spy franchise. “I hope Callum ends up being the next Bond. I think he would be a great Bond,” Clooney said. “He’s tall and handsome and charming and British, so he’s the perfect guy to do it.” Turner has emerged as one of the frontrunners to replace Daniel Craig following the announcement that acclaimed filmmaker Denis Villeneuve will direct the next Bond movie. But Turner insisted he has no inside knowledge about the casting process. “I know as much as you do—really, I know as much as you do,” he told The Hollywood Reporter. Other names linked to Bond include Jacob Elordi and Tom Francis, though Amazon MGM has yet to announce any casting decisions. Read it at The Hollywood Reporter Read more at The Daily Beast.
