The Russo Brothers are throwing their support behind Rege Jean Page for the next James Bond. In an interview with Radio Times, The Gray Man directors say that the Bridgerton star is more than up to the task. Since No Time To Die hit theaters, the question has circulated on social media: Who will play Bond next? 007 is one of those dream roles for an actor, especially a British one. However, nothing is set in stone. MGM and Sony are said to be considering all of their options before moving on the next person in that tuxedo. (For what it’s worth, the brain trust seems to be particularly opposed to having a gender-swapped Bond.) Page’s performance in Bridgerton and that charisma seem to be doing a lot of the heavy lifting. However, as the face of the Netflix mega-hit, he’s got the kind of recognition that would attract serious interest to whatever comes next in the franchise.
