Every man, at some point in his life, wishes he could be James Bond. And with the news that Daniel Craig may well be out as 007, there are a whole bunch of actors in London wondering what they could bring to the role.
Could Andy Serkis become the Seventh James Bond?
Serkis’s star has been rising in recent years thank to critically acclaimed roles in The Last Jedi (2017), War for the Planet of the Apes (2017) and The Force Awakens (2015). His commercial appeal is growing, too.
The question for Serkis now is – what next?
Three reasons Andy Serkis would be good for the James Bond franchise

- It would give Andy Serkis a chance to play a lover, as well as a fighter.
