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 from London to Berlin wondering what they could bring to the role.
Could Christoph Maria Herbst become the Seventh James Bond?
Herbst’s star has been rising in recent years thank to critically acclaimed roles in Look Who's Back (2015), 300 Worte Deutsch (2015) and Stromberg (2004-2012). His commercial appeal is growing, too.
The question for Herbst now is – what next?
Three reasons Christoph Maria Herbst would be good for the James Bond franchise
- It would clarify that Bond is a rotating identity: If M can be a woman, why can't James Bond be a 58-year-old German?
- No other performers could be nearly as cool and broodingly suave as Herbst.
- It would give Christoph Maria Herbst a chance to play a lover, as well as a fighter.
