You know?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Joe went on to joke he&#8217;ll take the role &#8220;if you\u2019re offering!&#8221; and declared his likes his martinis both shaken and stirred, saying: &#8220;I like both. I do, I do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The hunt for a new Bond looks set to resume after the franchise was taken over by  Amazon MGM in a mega-money deal following the departure of longterm producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson.<\/p>\n<p>\nAfter the announcement was made last month, an insider told Deadline&#8217;s Baz Bamigboye that the deal might not have happened if Bond bosses had found the perfect actor to take over from Craig.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe source said: &#8220;Perhaps, I do think that it\u2019s possible that if God had sent us a totally no-brainer Bond in the last couple of years, then it might be a different situation.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>\nA another insider told the publication the producers had taken meetings with several actors about the role &#8211; with reports suggesting &#8216;Godzilla&#8217; star Aaron Taylor-Johnson was among them &#8211; but there was never a clear &#8220;frontrunner&#8221; for the coveted part. <\/p>\n<p>\nThey said: &#8220;[The meetings were] just as kind of an ongoing, keeping your eye out on who\u2019s around, but keeping in touch. &#8220;<\/p>\n<p>\nBut I definitely don\u2019t think that there was any frontrunner. They wanted to know what they wanted to do next before they thought of the right person for it. &#8220;It\u2019s sort of chicken and egg, isn\u2019t it? And if there was a blindingly obvious new guy, it might be a different situation.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/joe-alwyn-drops-james-bond-hint-1414555.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3 March 2025 Joe Alwyn would love to throw his &#8220;hat in the ring&#8221; for the coveted role of James Bond.
