Actor Rege-Jean Page is still the favorite of the James Bond contenders. Insiders talked about this 007. Also among those who could replace Daniel Craig – Henry Cavill and George McKay, who played the main role in the movie “1917”.
Source 007 reported that Bond film producers are actively discussing Rege-Jean Page’s candidacy alongside Cavill and McKay. Earlier it became known that Daniel Craig will play the role of 007 for the last time in No Time to Die. The release of the 25th Bond film has been postponed three times due to the coronavirus pandemic.
“They talk about Rege, but the Bond producers don’t make any decisions until No Time to Die comes out. They focus on Daniel Craig’s big finale. But Henry Cavill is still in the game as well, and he is much more famous now than when his name first appeared,” says the source. “Another name is George McKay. One of the producers of 1917 approached Bond and suggested George. There is some talk of relaunching the Bond franchise after Daniel Craig with someone younger and he could fit the bill.”
The premiere of No Time to Die will take place on 30 September.
