As the search for the next James Bond officially gathers pace, former 007 casting director Debbie McWilliams has made it clear that she does not support some of the names dominating fan speculation.
McWilliams, who spent four decades casting Bond films, said actors Jacob Elordi, Callum Turner and Harris Dickinson should not inherit the iconic role because audiences already know too much about them, as per Variety.
McWilliams worked on the James Bond franchise for 40 years, beginning with 1981’s For Your Eyes Only and continuing through 2021’s No Time to Die.
During her tenure, she cast Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig as the British spy.
Following her retirement and Amazon’s acquisition of the Bond franchise, the responsibility of casting the next 007 has shifted to casting director Nina Gold and director Denis Villeneuve.
In a recent interview, McWilliams dismissed the frequently rumoured contenders. (ANI)
