The face of the James Bond franchise could look very different after Daniel Craig leaves it behind. We’re yet to see who’ll take on this role once that happens, but the current 007 wouldn’t mind if a woman followed in his footsteps.
Craig discussed the future of the franchise during the recent launch of the upcoming Bond 25 film. He believes there’s no need to stick to outdated macho traditions when picking the next Bond and take everyone into consideration – regardless of their race and gender.
“I think that everybody should be considered. Also for women and for African-Americans, there should be great parts anyway, across the board,” explained Daniel Craig.
The future of James Bond franchise has been a matter of public debate ever since Craig announced he’ll end his run with Bond 25. Many Hollywood A-listers shared their thoughts about the potential female Bond, including Craig’s wife Rachel Weisz and co-star Eva Green. Unlike Craig, they were against the idea, because they believe women should get their own stories.
