Daniel Craig after successfully running his character as James Bond with last year’s No Time to Die after numerous delays due to the pandemic. It has earlier come to know that the search for the next Bond will begin in 2022. According to the industry sources cited by Deadline reporter Justin Kroll, recently it has come to know that we may hear about the casting decision news as soon as March.

Kroll has tweeted by saying that one source has said we may be able to expect an announcement “after the Oscars” although he has warned to take this with a grain of salt. Although nothing specific has been mentioned, the updates implied that we may hear about the next Bond sooner rather than later.

While it's been crickets on the #BondWatch scene, making it seem like this will be a long process, one source with a couple clients in the mix told me something interesting recently of when a decision may come down the pipeline, "I think we here who it is after the Oscars."

Who will be the next James Bond?

Although there are no solid leads that have come up about who is going to be the next Bond. There is plenty of speculation from industry figures and commentators. Meanwhile, in 2019, the former Bond Pierce Brosnan has said that he would like to see a woman who will be seen playing the character of Bond. The producer of the series Barbara Broccoli has said that Bond will always be a man, while she is at the helm of the franchise. These sentiments have already been echoed by Daniel Craig. He said that rather than casting a woman as Bond, there should be a part as just goos as James Bond, but for a woman.

At this point, when the main context is all about who is going to be the next James Bond, all Broccoli has said is that the actor should definitely be British, but he can be of any ethnicity or race. More recently when these questions are asked, Brosnan has put forward two actors that he thought would be good as Bond–Idris Elba and Tom Hardy.

Tom Holland has previously put his own name forward for the role. He also said that he would “love to be James Bond” someday. Meanwhile, John Boyega has also expressed his interest in this role as has Witcher star Henry Cavil. Bridgeton’s Rege-Jean page is also reportedly considered for the role, but until there is no official announcement, there is no way to know for the confirmed news who will be stepping next into the shoes of James Bond.
