‘James Bond’ producer reveals age of next actor who will play 007

“James Bond” producer Michael G. Wilson has given fans of the secret agent franchise a glimpse of what they could expect from the next 007.

While he remained tight-lipped on much of the speculation surrounding the next British spy, Wilson did divulge the age of the actor who will suit up for the next film.

After Daniel Craig stepped down from the role following his final Bond film “No Time to Die,” speculation has been rife about the next actor to take over the reins.

As the search for the next Bond goes on, there’s been much talk of Idris Elba being the next 007, as well as Tom Hardy. “Bridgerton” star Regé-Jean Page is also tipped to become the martini-drinking secret agent.

“We’ve tried looking at younger people in the past,” Wilson said at a Bond event at the British Film Institute on Friday, according to Deadline. “But trying to visualize it doesn’t work.”

Craig, who took over as Bond from Pierce Brosnan in 2006, was 38 years old, and went on to appear in four 007 films in total.

“Remember, Bond’s already a veteran,” Wilson said. “He’s had some experience. He’s a person who has been through the wars, so to speak. He’s probably been in the SAS or something. He isn’t some kid out of high school that you can bring in and start off. That’s why it works for a thirty-something.”

As producers aim for actors in their thirties, this seemingly rules out Hardy, 45, and Elba, 50 — both front-runners.

The oldest Bond was Roger Moore, who was 58 years old in “A View To A Kill,” his seventh and final outing as 007.

Last month, Brosnan — who helmed the iconic role in a total of four Bond films spanning from 1995 until his departure from the franchise in 2002 — admitted he doesn’t care who the next 007 is.

“Who should do it?” he said to GQ magazine in a cover interview. “I don’t care.”

“It’ll be interesting to see who they get, who the man shall be,” he continued. “Whoever he be, I wish him well.”
