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 Madrid wondering what they could bring to the role.
Could Sergi López become the Seventh James Bond?
López’s star has been rising in recent years thank to critically acclaimed roles in Potiche (Trophy Wife) (2010), Pan's Labyrinth (2006) and Janis and John (2003). His commercial appeal is growing, too.
The question for López now is – what next?
Three reasons Sergi López 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 59-year-old Spanish?
- No other performers could be nearly as cool and broodingly suave as López.
- It would give Sergi López a chance to play a lover, as well as a fighter.
