After the debate about the next Superman, the biggest debate is about who will be the next James Bond. A lot of actors want to play the iconic character of 007, including Henry Cavill. Though the actor has received support from his fans, is it really possible for him to portray the iconic character following the speculations surrounding Aaron Taylor-Johnson?

The chances of the British actor becoming the next James Bond have risen. Actors, including Regé-Jean Page and Tom Hardy, have also expressed their interest in playing the character. Amidst all the candidates, the Kick-Ass actor impressed the producer Barbara Broccoli the most. However, the rumors suggest that Aaron Taylor-Johnson is no more a part of the franchise. Speaking on the podcast, The Hot Mic, reporter Jeff Sneider, revealed the news he had about the casting of Taylor.

As per his source, although Taylor might have impressed everyone, playing Bond is not what he needed. The 32-year-old actor is going to appear in the upcoming film, Kraven the Hunter. However, he no more has the license to fill in the place of Daniel Craig. Well, if the news about the actor not being a part of the million-dollar franchise is true, then there is still hope for The Witcher star.

Despite the Enola Holmes actor getting rejected previously for the iconic role, he still has an opportunity to be the next James Bond. And even if he can not be the next James Bond, he certainly has bagged Bond-like roles in the upcoming movies.
