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 Edinburgh wondering what they could bring to the role.
Could Luke Evans become the Seventh James Bond?
Evans’s star has been rising in recent years thank to critically acclaimed roles in Beauty and the Beast (2017), The Hobbit (2012-2014) and The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (2013). His commercial appeal is growing, too.
The question for Evans now is – what next?
Three reasons Luke Evans 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 Luke Evans?
- No other performers could be nearly as cool and broodingly suave as Evans.
- It would give Luke Evans a chance to play a lover, as well as a fighter.
